The Liberalism of the ancients is not the Liberalism of today. I am a Liberal if you asked John Locke. But the Liberals of today don't follow John Locke's version of liberalism.

There is no "defending" that. There is tolerating it. And it's all tolerated UNTIL it becomes an actual threat to our physical safety.
That ***** in the burka may as well be wearing a Nazi uniform.
No, that needs to be defended, time and again. It's not open to you are willing to tolerate it today but not tomorrow. That is what's known as having principles, and standing up for them, even when that is the hardest thing to do because shit is hitting the fan and the mob wants blood.

It has united most of the modern nations in a sudden panic to defeat ISIS.
It's gonna be a long ugly war. But Islam will either modernize....or....they'll all be killed in battle. It's really that simple.
