Purple Hearts For Soldiers Wounded At The Battle Of Ft. Hood

Roger Kimball is on board with the reality, the soldiers killed and wounded at Ft. Hood were struck while on active duty in a war zone. They deserve the medals accorded their action, Purple heart medals.

Kimball also says:

Islam presents the West with a boundary case, testing the limits of religious freedom. Unlike Muslims, we believe people should be allowed to worship unmolested as they see fit. But in order to protect that commodiousness, the West must be intolerant of doctrines, like Islam, that preach intolerance.

Doctrines that have a religious dimension must not be allowed to draw on the prestige, the privileges, the immunities we accord to religion when they do so in order to deny those privileges and immunities to others. Such movements — Islam is one — should be regarded as what they are: activist political organizations whose aims are destructive of our institutions.


"Activist political organization", can we really deny that truth?
