Liberals Can Remain Liberals and Still Recognize Islam as a Threat |

The majority of the
people in the counterislamization movement are conservatives and some of them
feel that a liberal is incapable of understanding why Islamic expansion is
dangerous, or that a liberal needs to become a conservative to "get it."
This is not true. And my assertion is not based on wishful thinking. We have
lots of strong evidence. For example:
The growing movement in Germany: Half the people who identify as left-wing Social Democrats agree with the aims of the German demonstrators (who want to curb Muslim immigration, among other goals). Is Resisting Islamic Expansion Only For Conservatives? Robert Spencer explains that it is foolish to think so. Liberals Rejecting Totalitarian Ideologies and Blind Multiculturalism while Embracing Multiculturalism Based on Tolerance and Mutual Respect on a site called Indoctrination Watch. One of the most active participants in the counterislamization movement is a liberal Canadian philosophy professor, Elsa Schieder, PhD. Read what she wrote about Islamic headscarves. And read her personal journey toward understanding the threat of Islam. A European liberal explains why she is so adamantly against Islamic expansion: United We Stand The evidence goes on and on... Liberals Against Orthodox Islam The Case of Eric Allen Bell Why a Liberal Film Maker Changed His Mind About Islam Liberal Counterjihadist Education Makes a Difference, Especially With the Large Proportion of "Undecideds" Focus on the Undecided We should go out of our way to avoid alienating liberals. We want them on our side. A liberal-conservative divide doesn't help our cause. It does help the people motivated by Islamic doctrine, however. This is Influence 101: You impede your ability to persuade people when you call them evil or idiots. One thing to think about: A liberal has a better chance of convincing and persuading another liberal than a conservative does. And the mainstream media is dominated by liberals. So the more liberals we have on our side promoting this cause, the better off we will be, and the faster we will reach a critical mass of people who understand the true nature of Islam. |
