Western capitulationism.

Sam Harris has packed a large amount of common sense about the Muslim threat in a small space. An excerpt:

The controversy over Fitna, like all such controversies, renders one fact about our world especially salient: Muslims appear to be far more concerned about perceived slights to their religion than about the atrocities committed daily in its name. Our accommodation of this psychopathic skewing of priorities has, more and more, taken the form of craven and blinkered acquiescence.

There is an uncanny irony here that many have noticed. The position of the Muslim community in the face of all provocations seems to be: Islam is a religion of peace, and if you say that it isn't, we will kill you.

On the perennial issue of whether it's real or it's Memorex, Harris quotes Hassan Butt, a former member of the British Jihadi Network:

[T]he real engine of our violence [was] Islamic theology.

Some westerners just don't want to know that.
