Interesting perspective
 
 A man whose family was German aristocracy prior to World War ll owned a




 
Number of large industries and estates.  When asked how many German people
 
Were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our attitude toward
 
Fanaticism.
 
  
'Very few people were true Nazis 'he said,' but many enjoyed the return of
 
German pride, and many more were too busy to care.  I was one of those who
 
Just thought the Nazis were a bunch of fools.  So, the majority just sat
 
Back and let it all happen.  Then, before we knew it, they owned us, and we
 
Had lost control, and the end of the world had come.  My family lost
 
Everything.  I ended up in a concentration camp and the Allies destroyed my
 
Factories.'
 
  
We are told again and again by 'experts' and 'talking heads' that Islam is
 
The religion of peace, and that the vast majority of Muslims just want to
 
Live in peace.  Although this unqualified assertion may be true, it is
 
Entirely irrelevant.  It is meaningless fluff, meant to make us feel
 
Better, and meant to somehow diminish the spectra of fanatics rampaging
 
Across the globe in the name of Islam.  The fact is that the fanatics rule
 
Islam at this moment in history.
 
  
It is the fanatics who march.  It is the fanatics who wage any one of 50
 
Shooting wars worldwide.  It is the fanatics who systematically slaughter
 
Christian or tribal groups throughout Africa and are gradually taking over
 
The entire continent in an Islamic wave.  It is the fanatics who bomb,
 
Behead, murder, or honor kill.  It is the fanatics who take over mosque
 
After mosque.  It is the fanatics who zealously spread the stoning and
 
Hanging of rape victims and homosexuals.  The hard quantifiable fact is
 
That the 'peaceful majority', the 'silent majority', is cowed and
 
Extraneous.
 
 
Communist Russia was comprised of Russians who just wanted to live in
 
Peace, yet the Russian Communists were responsible for the murder of about
 
20 million people.  The peaceful majority were irrelevant.  China's huge
 
Population was peaceful as well, but Chinese Communists managaed to kill a
 
Staggering 70 million people.
 
  
The average Japanese individual prior to World War ll was not a
 
Warmongering sadist.  Yet, Japan murdered and slaughtered its way across
 
South East Asia in an orgy of killing that included the systematic murder
 
Of 12 million Chinese civilians; most killed by sword, shovel, and bayonet.
 
  
And, who can forget Rwanda, which collapsed into butchery.  Could it not be
 
Said that the majority of Rwandans were 'peace loving'?
 
  
History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our
 
Powers of reason we often miss the most basic and uncomplicated of points:
 
Peace-loving Muslims have been made irrelevant by their silence.
 
Peace-loving Muslims will become our enemy if they don't speak up, because
 
Like my friend from Germany, they will awaken one day and find that the
 
Fanatics own them, and the end of their world will have begun.
 
  
Peace-loving Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Russians, Rwandans, Serbs,
 
Afghanis, Iraqis, Palestinians, Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians, and many
 
Others have died because the peaceful majority did not speak up until it
 
Was too late.
  
 
As for us who watch it all unfold, we must pay attention to the only group
 
That counts; the fanatics who threaten our way of life.
 
 
Lastly, at the risk of offending, anyone who doubts that the issue is
 
Serious and just deletes this email without sending it on, is contributing
 
To the passiveness that allows the problems of expand.
