The fertility rate of Muslim women ranges between 4 and 7. The fertility of Western women barely exceeds replacement level in aggregate, and does not even reach replacement level in Western Europe or Russia (which will be down 50M people by mid-century).
Islam is a more dynamic society and culture than the West, period.
This does not mean that Western Liberal traditions, rights, freedoms, liberties, philosophy, etc., need persih. But they surely will if the West does not realize the existential nature of the conflict with Islam.
Those preaching multiculturalism interestingly are the same demanding maximum (Western) rights and liberties. No other culture recognizes, for one example, the rights of women - their rights are not even universally recognized across the West. Another example is when Hillary held a press conference after the fall of Afghanistan, telling everyone that we "must insist" on the inclusion of women in the new Afghan government. Not very multicultural...
Any feminist preaching multiculuralism is - ignorantly - preaching AGAINST the rights they hold most dear. Scratch a multiculturalist and an American Imperialist bleeds.
Islam must be stopped or the West will perish. I have no interest in my daughter wearing a burkha, or my son disdaining other thoughts and ideas.
Keep in mind that Islam translates one book per year from other languages (See Bernard Lewis' What Happened?)
I wish for my kids and theirs the rights and liberties we take for granted now. That will require one of two things, only one of which is in our control. The first is a Reformation within Islam. The second is the destruction of Islam.
While there certainly are voices speaking toward a reformation (read MEMRI.org), it is uncertain as to whether the Baby Boomer mulitcultis will have sown the seeds of final destruction within the West before that Reformation can occur - in which case it likely won't.
The last time a civilization was at this brink the Barbarians breached the gates of Rome and we got 1,000 years of the Dark Ages. There is no need to go through that again.
If we seriously believe in our rights and liberties, Islam societies breeding terrorism - which is not all of them - must be crushed. As was Japan, as was Germany.
No other way exists to stop this enemy, preserve our rights and freedoms, and bequeath to our heirs what was bequeathed to us.
