"Police sniffer dogs trained to spot terrorists at railway stations may no longer come into contact with Muslim passengers - after complaints that it is against the suspects' religion." So begins the story below from Britain's Daily Express.
Fifteen years ago who would have thought such an absurdity possible? How did Great Britain come to this point?
The answer is both complex and simple. The simple answer is this: As Muslim militancy gradually increased, most Brits didn't pay attention. Those who did apparently did not do enough to ring the alarm bells necessary to awaken their fellow citizens.
I draw your attention to this because the choices we make today will help determine what kind of society we have in five, ten or fifteen years from now.
In ten years will it be illegal here in America for someone like me to speak out against radical Islam? Will a dirty bomb be detonated in five years because some Muslim FBI Arabic translators deliberately misinterpreted critical intelligence intercepts? In twelve years will a federal court rule that denying Muslims the right to be governed by sharia law is discriminatory?
Sound impossible? Why? How many things happening today in England - or even here in America - would have been thought possible ten years ago?
