Humiliation as a weapon

Are we still fighting "for the hearts and minds of the moslems?" Because if we are, than the pope's contrition for telling the truth means that we're having our assess whipped in this fight. Islamic is a patriarchal world, where the issue of honor is a very important one. The islamofascists know that they can't challenge the West on  science, technology, or culture, so they hit us where they can reach and where their victory will reverberate among their fellow moslems. They challenged us to a boxing match they know they can't win playing by the rules, so they are biting and kicking us in the balls. It doesn't matter that this is dirty fighting, what matters is that they have us squirming and covering our balls. They can say to the muslim audience who at some time might have been attracted to Western ideas and way of life, "This is what you covet? Look at them: a moslem will frown and the head of their church wil bow and ask for forgiveness. Do you want to be like them, or would you rather stick with us and have them tremble in fear of you?"

It's not hard to guess the answer coming from the islamic audience.Â
