In the book "The Shadow of the Giant" he summarizes the balance of government and religion that plagues Islam:

Islam…has never learned how to be a Religion.  It’s a tyranny by it’s very nature.  Until it learns to let the door swing both ways, and permit Muslims to decide not to be Muslim without penalty, then the world has no choice but to fight against it in order to remain free.

…

As long as ordinary Muslims believe it’s their duty to kill any Muslim who tries to quit being a Muslim, as long as they think they have a holy duty  to resort to arms to compel unbelievers to obey Islamic law — you can’t liberalize that, you can’t make a decent system for anybody.  Not even for Muslims.  Because the cruelest, narrowest, most evil people will always rise to power because they’ll always be the ones most willing to wrap themseves in the cresent flag and murder people in God’s name.

Something to think about.

Open tracked to ST who writes an excellent piece on those who would see us lose.

Well, now you know who we will lose to if we as a nation cannot find the unity we lost.
