I will just say this. The eternal enemy of democracy and freedom is Islam. To substantiate this claim, all one has to do is read the Koran and the appropriate Hadiths and Sura. Our putative Muslim allies are, at best, morally conflicted concerning their allegiance to Islam. They may be willing to make temporary common casue with the infidel, but so long as they adhere to Islamic teaching, they remain our natural enemies. What Islamic nation can you name which is presently allowing the erection of Catholic cathedrals or Jewish synogogues in their Muslim countries? Saudi Arabia? Egypt? Morroco? For Muslims there are only believers and infidels. To not understand this basic truth is to not understand the nature of the war we are in. The concept of 'good Muslims' is as meaningless as the concept of 'good Nazis'. If they are practicing Muslims they are our foes. If you believe this definition to be too harsh then, to me, this merely shows evidence of your lack of understanding of Islam. Believe me, I truly wish that I was wrong and you were right in this. But, unfortunately, wishing won't make it so. Furthermore, your refusal to learn more about the actual threats we are facing actually aids and abets our enemies.

In fact we probably be doing a whole lot worse without them. Iraq and Afghanistan would both be loss causes. A lot of our allies in the War on Terror are Muslims.
