From an interview with Hugh Hewitt:
Victor Davis Hanson: ...we have to tell Muslims of good faith, the end is over for tolerating this type of behavior. If you go to a mosque, and somebody stands up and says Jews are apes and pigs, or the West should be destroyed, then you have a duty as a resident or a citizen in a Western country to oppose that. And if you don't do it, you're abetting it, and you're complicit in it.
Hugh Hewitt: Now that's powerful stuff, and I think you're absolutely right. I hope it happens.
In the leaked document, first published on the Web site of London’s Sunday Times on July 10, the Blair government focused on the role of radical imams—many of whom it had given asylum in Britain—inciting Muslims to jihad.
It should be a no-brainer to make it illegal for the imams to call for this sort of thing, to arrest the leaders, and deport the followers. Of course, the Brits could just let them go on killing British civilians, if they really think that's a preferable option.
Hamlet:
To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them?
Some would argue that it's nobler, precisely nobler, to let the terrorists go on blowing up British civilians, rather than to do anything like arresting all these imams, and deporting everyone who belongs to the mosques at which they preach.
In my opinion there's no nobility in letting your own civilians be in danger, and everybody will be much happier with these imams and their followers arrested and/or expelled from England.
