The second step is understanding that this is a war but if we stick together and develop social resilience, we can win this war. The third step is to understand what ideologies are damaging our ability to win the war. The fourth step is to differentiate, on the one hand, between the Islamists and their supporters, and on the other hand, those Muslims willing to reform their religion\u2019s compatibility with our justice system and our liberal democracy as a precondition to joining the centre of our societies rather than the margins. The final step is to teach our children (after teaching the teachers) that we are the good guys, that the world has bad guys, and we cannot tolerate a descent into submission to the bad guys.<\/p>\n<p><strong>View the complete article including image, links and comments at:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/267442\/ideological-path-submission-mark-tapson\">http:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/267442\/ideological-path-submission-mark-tapson<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to handle the Islam problem.
