Islam is like HIV. HIV is the virus - it lies dormant for some time. Not everyone with HIV show symptoms of the disease AIDS. That's 'moderate Muslims'. They believe in Islam, the Quran and Muhammad and the Islamic Hell. But they reinterpret Islam in a way to be peaceful and live lives like normal human beings. But there is always the potential that they will get the full-blown disease, get radicalised - a western term which is actually following Islam to the letter. Hate the Infidel - kill them, behead them, cut off their finger-tips etc.Islam has no defence against reason and logic. It's only defence is threats and violence.That is why, just like HIV, Ebola or any other deadly virus, it has to be eradicated off the face of this Earth.Read allPost comment
