Appeasement of Concessions - The Invisible War with Islam

Posted: 30 May 2009 07:38 PM PDT

"He who sets the terms of the war sets the terms of the
peace."

While our focus is on the visible war against terrorists and
guerrillas in which our armies are engaged in, this war is only the
visible war, the tip of a great dark iceberg which reaches far beneath the
surface.

The visible war we are fighting is the war that the most
radical Islamists are carrying forward, it is the war that occupies the
bulk of our attention, it is the only war that our leaders officially
recognize -- but it is also the war that sets the terms for the invisible
war happening daily on our streets, in our schools, in government,
university, civil service and throughout our lives.

The visible
war, the terrorist threat, the car bombings, the shootings, the riots, the
stabbings are the threat under which free nations surrender themselves one
piece at a time. The goal of the visible war is to make present and clear
the threat. But it is the invisible war which extracts the
concessions.

The invisible war is not waged with guns or bombs. It
is waged with reasonable editorials, with suits and benedictions. With
smiles and handshakes and reassurances. It is a salesman's pitch that goes
something like this. "We want to live in peace. To be your neighbors, to
attend your weddings, embrace your families and create a better world. But
first this is what we want--"

The invisible war. The quiet threat
that sets the terms of the peace. The "Muslim Moderates" who seem quite
reasonable who come bearing a gift, the message that peace is possible, as
long as the proper concessions are made to them. And of course those
concessions will be followed by more concessions still. And yet more to
come after.

And if those concessions are not made, the visible war
will follow. There will be riots, bombings, stabbings, shooting. The
growing domestic Muslim population, whose presence we are legally not
permitted to object to or their deportation to call for, in countries as
diverse as England, Australia, Israel, Sweden, Russia and France, will
turn hostile and become a weapon in our midst.

The invisible war
uses the threat of a visible war combined with the threat of the
"radicalization" of the "moderate" Muslim population, positioned like
self-reproducing Trojan horses within our midst, to enforce concessions in
the invisible war.

While we chase terrorists around the world,
their leaders and our domestic sympathizers are busy setting the terms of
surrender in our own capitals and getting their way more often than
not.

It is easy enough to see the template for it in the countries
most seriously affected, a look at Israel, Thailand or the Philippines
allows us to total up the final costs that are brought to the bargaining
table as terrorist leaders are legitimized to become statesmen and
terrorist populations become sovereign nations. But it is not as obvious
at the beginning when the butcher's bill has yet to be toted up and the
real agenda is still only a whisper in coffee houses, an ink smear on a
pamphlet, a hastily recorded speech by an Imam that law enforcement
refuses to take seriously. It is not until there is real blood on the
streets, when years of conflict become decades of conflict and the toll
wears down even the patriot and the hardened soldier, that the real
surrender begins and the enemy declares victory in the invisible war.

The real threat is not so much in the visible war, murderous as
it may be. The visible war may claim thousands and perhaps even millions.
But it is the invisible war that destroys countries feeding them up as
menu items for the Islamofascist beast. As great a threat as the terrorist
is, the phony moderate Muslim is a far greater threat -- for Islamic
leaders extract ten times the price of every moderate Muslim, both at home
and abroad, demanding money, political power, influence, land, autonomy,
positions and control in their name.

While we fight the invisible
war, Islam exploits the fighting to set better terms in its own invisible
war. As long as we give lip service to appeasing moderate Muslims, as long
as we turn our energies to appeasement, as long as we allow ourselves and
our societies to be held hostage to Muslim rage-- we allow the enemy to
set the terms of the war and in doing so set the terms of our own
surrender.
