"Until our leaders admit the true nature of Islamic extremism, we will never defeat it"
Unfortunately, most of those countries seemed to be entrenched in some combination of political correctness, naivety, or willful ignorance...
In the U.K. Daily Mail, Melanie Phillips writes what needs to be said:
"In medieval times, moreover, Christianity used its interpretation of the Bible also to kill ‘unbelievers’, because early Christians believed they had a divine duty to make the world conform to their religion at all costs. That stopped when the Reformation ushered the Church into modernity, and today no Christian wants to use violence to convert others to their faith. The problem with the extremist teachings of Islam is that the religion has never had a similar ‘reformation’. Certainly, there are enlightened Muslims in Britain who would dearly love their religion to be reformed. But they have the rug pulled from under their feet by the Government’s flat denial of the religious nature of this terrible problem."
