This is a Cultural/Religious War
Moshe Feiglin was in New York on 9/11. Two weeks later he wrote this profound article, Why America Has Already Lost the War.
For him it was a cultural/religious war. The same war that Israel had been fighting for a century and losing. Islam destroyed the greatest symbol of the West, he wrote, namely the Twin Towers and nothing less would do but to destroy Mecca, Medina and al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.
Instead America organized a mighty coalition to go after cave dwellers in Afghanistan, hornets if you will, while ignoring the nest. It even called the religion, that has been at war with Christianity since its inception, and in whose name the Twin Towers were destroyed, a "religion of peace". It seeks to accommodate its mortal enemy rather than destroy it.
The "peace process" is aimed at destroying Judaism's symbols, in that it seeks to remove from Jewish sovereignty its biblical heartland and Jerusalem. What will be left?
He explained the conflict,
Two deviant daughters came forth from Judaism but left the fold to conquer the world: Christianity and Islam. Both hate their mother and both fight each other.
Judaism integrates the qualities of strict justice and mercy, in harmony and in proper measure. Christianity took only the quality of mercy while Islam took the quality of strict justice.
The Moslems see with jealousy how the culture based on Christian mercy succeeds in gaining control over the world. Let everyone come and benefit from the cornucopia open to all — to everyone we proffer the other cheek, and the whole body, in fact. Come and take your part in the wealth, come and enter the gates of the World Trade Center. We aren’t conquering you with the sword, but with gold.
Please think about what he has written and then comment on Israpundit.
If you disagree with his thesis' please explain how the west is to win and what winning means.

If only the United States and Israel would have listened to Meir Kahane, rabbi, former Israeli parliament member, great Jewish patriot, when he called upon us to terrorize the terrorists. Only then could we truly claim to be fighting a war against terrorism with every intention of WINNING it - not engage in endless battles, skirmishes, etc. to benefit the globalists and Military Industrial Complex (important parts of the equation Feiglin failed to address).
We could still hear and heed Meir Kahane’s biblical call and wisdom, but will we?
USA Must Have Guts to Terrorize Terrorists
(as appeared in USA Today, February 12, 1987)
Feiglin must have flunked history. It is professing Christians (many Israelite in origin) whom God used to bring the world PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH. So much for MF’s assertion Christianity is strictly mercy and Islam strictly justice. Biblical Christianity tempers judgment with mercy.
Furthermore, traditional Christianity is not a deviant daughter of Judaism (they are daughters of the apostate Roman Catholic Church/Babylonian Mystery religion the New Testament condemns).
For the record, biblical Christianity is a continuation of the biblical religion, founded on the holy day of Shavuot in Jerusalem, and taken to heart by Jews who accepted Yeshua’s teachings, His magnification of the Law and the Prophets (to include the spirit and intent, not just the letter of the law), a new and improved religion so to speak, while Judaism remained stunted and self-righteous.
