"Geert Wilders Endures Churchill's Burden"

By William Sullivan

"To recognize the correlation between Islamism and National Socialism does not take a stretch of the imagination. Given the blatant similarities between the two ideologies, Geert Wilders' unheeded calls to recognize the Islamic threat bring to mind the lamentably ignored warnings about Nazism from perhaps the greatest leader of the twentieth century, a man who if we were without, Western democracies may have collapsed.

Winston Churchill succinctly heralded the evils and intentions of Nazi Germany long before the blitzkrieg against Poland plunged the world into global conflict and despair. And like Wilders, his voice was muffled by the rhetoric of the sightless pacifists in Western societies."

Yes, but....! Churchill's difficulties, including the ones you mention, all went to train him up, especially his thinking and his ideas, so that he would be able to lead the free world when he came to power.

Wilder's difficulties now can be viewed in the same way, namely that he is being trained up, not only to be PM of the Netherlands, but to be the leading anti-Islam statesman before, during and after the next World War.

The sightless pacifists, as you reasonably call them, exist today as they did in Churchill's time. However, they matter so much less than then because of the Blogosphere of today.

The lamentably ignored warnings about Nazism cannot be repeated because of the Blogosphere. Look at how Climate Warming is being killed off, slowly albeit, by the blogs though the PC MSN ignore the climate deniers arguments, largely.

Besides, it will come to ahead with or without Wilders. Israel will feel compelled to attack Iran soon, and then jihadists will, say, release killer man-made viruses into our cities. We will then attack Islam so hard it won't recover.

As there was an inevitability from Bismark's united Germany through the first war to the second one, so there seems to be an inevitability about the nuclear confrontation between the two civilisations.

Hey ho!

Mark Scott, why don't you respond especially since you started the hare running in the first place?
