Theocracy

      Merriam Webster dictionary defines Theocracy as, “a form of government in which a country is ruled by religious leaders.” Here in America we have serious problem with radical Islamic terrorists.  Our country fails to recognize or identify the problem because of extreme political correctness. 

Radical Islamic Jihad beheads people and uses young girls for suicide bombings while we release known Islamic terrorists from Guantanamo Bay.  Our government still refuses to use the term Islamic terrorist.  What will it take to get us to deal with this problem, and who has to die to get us to wake up?

Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all radical Islamic terrorists are Muslims.  It should be impossible to ignore this basic logic.  The Muslin religion advocates Jihad and Sharia law.  Jihad is a holy war of Islam that is the sacred duty of all Muslims according to the Quran.  Radical Islam interprets this to mean “death to all infidels.”  Some more moderate Muslims do not believe everyone has to convert to the Muslim religion as long as everyone is forced to live under Sharia Law.  This is theocracy.

Sharia law takes away the rights of woman and gay people.  Honor killings are acceptable in many cases.  Leaving the Muslim religion or dating outside the Muslim religion is grounds for an honor killing.  This is totally counter to the laws of any free country. 

Islamic terrorists recently attacked a French paper because it exercised freedom of speech and freedom of the press.  This kind of action cannot be tolerated, but, sadly, no country has the resources for continual surveillance of every suspected terrorist. 

France has given Muslims too much autonomy.  There are recognized No Go Zones where the Muslims are left to govern themselves under Sharia law.  This policy does not and cannot work in any country. 

People that fought and lived through WWII are often referred to as the Greatest Generation.  They defeated the Axis powers in WWII.  This was an all out war and we won.  There was no problem with political correctness, interrogations, or civilian casualties.  Many Japanese Americans were put in internment camps.  We bombed German cities and dropped atomic bombs on two Japanese cities. 

This was a necessary part of war and done to protect our country.  There was no quarter given and there were civilian casualties.  The Axis powers were defeated at great cost to both sides.  Today Germany and Japan are some of our best allies, and the both enjoy freedom and a good standard of living. 

I am not advocating putting all Muslims in internment camps, but we must take this radical Jihad war serious.  What will it take for our government to recognize this threat to our freedom and put an end to it?  Critical action is necessary before it escalates into WWIII.
