Islam and the problems of nation building

By Alliance Alert

Bruce Walker writing at The New American: "The Americans of 1789 were overwhelmingly religiously serious Christians who understood the injunctions of Christ and tried to follow them; Jews, the only other religious group of any real size, loved America from the beginning and understood that the practical application of true Christianity did not threaten Jews at all. How did Americans view government? With great suspicion . . . Islam's Shariah law is not compatible at all really, with ordered liberty and tolerant society. It leaves poverty, fear, and brutality in its wake. The cure for Afghanistan is not more NATO forces but, perhaps, more brave Christian missionaries. Not the politically correct approach, of course, but the real and true approach nonetheless."
