Jihad in the West - The Holy War that Isn't P7

Jihad in the West  by Paul Fregosi
Introduction: The Holy War That Isn't
Paragraph 7


There are still many muslims who believe that it is islam's manifest destiny to conquer the whole world. Obliged to face the realities of the modern world, many may not be too sure about this article of their faith. But, just the same, many still ardently cling to it, even among the millions of immigrants who have made their home in France and Britain. The fundamentalists and those who have faith in the message of Ayatollah Khomeini do. So do those we can call muslim revivalists, devout and sincere followers of the "prophet" but unwilling to take part in the militant postures and actions of the fundamentalists. Profoundly disturbed by the moral degradation of Western society today, they are convinced the future belongs to islam.
