Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain (Psalm 76:10 (KJV.) Islam is becoming more dangerous for everybody every day.

I have had the dubious pleasure of hearing you recently on CBC and have read your essay titled “Canada at war for 13 years” – and heartily agree with you on one point only: we certainly should do away with the term “terrorism.” Instead, we should use the term “islamofascism” or the phrase “islamist extremism” […]

These are portentous days in the global village. With Gaza, after fifty days of violence, at least temporarily on the back burner, the world’s attention is returning to Iraq.
