The Coming War with Islam By Solly Ganor

Five years ago, I had a conversation with a young Palestinian student who in short precise terms explained how Islam will defeat the West. The conversation opened my eyes to a much larger picture in which Israel plays only a minor role in the Islamic game of conquest.

I saw him hesitate for a moment; then he smiled and thanked me for my hospitality.
