The Right State

Germany’s security bubble has just burst. They thought they had covered all their bases in their efforts to appease the same Islamofascists who hate America. For years German politicians have blasted the United States as a way of achieving office. They opposed sending troops into Iraq. They have opposed the US on just about everything. And they, along with much of Europe, have refused to get serious with the terrorist groups in their own countries.

All of this changed with the arrest of a 21 year old engineering student from Lebanon for trying to bomb the German rail system.

“The terrorist threat has never before come so close to us,” Wolfgang Schäuble, the Interior Minister, said. Police patrols on railway stations have been stepped up but the scale of the problem — 5,700 railway stations and 4.3 million passengers a day — makes it impossible to impose the security measures being put in place in airports in Britain and elsewhere.

The suspect, identified only as Youssef Mohammed E, is accused of being at the heart of a plot to blow up two regional trains simultaneously on July 31. Investigators say that only a flaw in the construction of the propane gas bombs prevented a disaster.

What the German people do not seem to understand is the Islamic terrorists hate Germany because who they are. Germany is a rich, western, democratic and free society; the embodiment of everything the Islamofascists hate. The terrorists hate Germany because Germany is not an Islamic state. They hate Germany because German women do not cover themselves.

Another words, the terrorists hate everything about Germany. So they might as well get on board with the United States and fight the terrorists where they are. Spain has learned this lesson as has Australia and Great Britain, the Islamists want to destroy the west. Thus far, Great Britain and Australia have been great partners in this Global War on Terror while we fight the terrorists where they live. Germany would serve its people well if they also joined in this fight.

War has been declared on the west, we can either chose to fight or we can ignore the problem, or we can give in. Until now, Germany has chosen to ignore the problem, but you can be sure the Islamists have not. Ignoring the problem is suicide.
