Europe: Destroyed by the West's Indifference?

- Our media and intelligentsia are always on alert to defend everything coming from Islam, from women's veils to the "right not be offended" by cartoons. The same establishment, however, lies in a coma when it comes to Christian symbols under attack.
- The West today keeps on hiding its deepest secret: that there is an Islamic war going on against our own Judeo-Christian civilization.
- "They want Christianity eradicated, and they want to convert all Muslims to their crusade... They want it to be a holy war. And they want Christians gone. And I don't think that narrative is getting the attention it should get..." — Piers Morgan, Daily Mail.
There
are pictures one cannot forget -- for instance, of Russian troops
hoisting their flag over burning Berlin in 1945. It was the end of
Nazism but the rise of Communism. Another photo is of U.S. Marines
raising the American flag over the battle-scarred Japanese island of Iwo
Jima.
Today the West faces
another totalitarianism: radical Islam. One place that witnessed the new
horror is Mount Sinjar in the Nineveh province of Iraq, once a home to
religious minorities, especially Christians and Yazidis. Thousands of
years of history changed when the jihadists of ISIS invaded Sinjar in
August of 2014. They slaughtered men and enslaved girls and women.
Christian churches were razed to the ground, and houses of worship,
looted.
