Yes please give me the reference if you can find it. I would appreciate.
The  Reims incident  described in the Burka v  Bikini post  are but a small part of what I&#039;m talking about. The &#039;Struthious` Left&#039;s (someone on WEIT  coined that excellent term) open legged supine posture whenever  Islam  and Islamism comes up is another small part. But there are many more... Angry, excited bearded men protesting those who &#039;disrespect&#039; the Prophet,  local self-proclaimed community leaders saying this is not your country, we, I -Islam- is the true rule, we decide what you can or cannot do here,  I could go on and on...
Those are examples of the things I fear infinitely more than `terrorism&#039;.]]></description>

I read some good stuff from Maajid Nawaz about this issue recently - I wish I could remember where I saw it. It was about how many Muslims in the West have been convinced that in order to be good Muslims they have to embrace the extreme form of the religion especially as part of maintaining their identity. If it comes back to me where I read it, I&#039;ll post a link.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In the case of Islamist terrorism, it is not terrorism in the classical sense (what Crenshaw refers to) that I fear. I fear, as an ex-European, the &#039;creeping islamisation&#039; of society in Europe, and an islamisation of the more fundamentalist kind at that.
Islam as a world view, and Islamism in particular, is anathema to all the &#039;good&#039; that European democracy stands (stood?) for: free speech, free inquiry, science, secularism, tolerance, women&#039;s rights, etc. etc. 
About everything that you did not like, feared even, in Christianity -now more or less tamed in Europe-, comes back now with a vengeance with Islamism.]]></description>
