CREEPING DHIMMITUDE

Today's must-read piece is a column by Daniel Pipes titled Intimidating the West, from Rushdie to Benedict.  It explores the ever-increasing encroachment of Islamic law into the secular (for now, anyway) west.  This is a serious situation, and our political leadership appears to be ignoring it.  How many more times will the west allow itself to be punked by angry extremist Muslims?  Based on current events, I'm not confident that there's any end in sight.
