Islam expert: Europe well on the way to 'Islamization'

A best-selling author and leading expert on Islam says that religion is well on its way to taking control of Europe -- and he's afraid that widespread violence may break out as a result.

In his new book, Religion of Peace? Why Christianity Is and Islam Isn't, Robert Spencer, who is director of Jihad Watch, says that the war on terror is in fact a struggle against an Islamic jihad that would conquer and subjugate Western non-Muslims. He also asserts that Islam is well on its way to taking over Europe because the population has been silent for too long.

"It looks as if the problem as advanced far beyond the point of any kind of peaceful or easy resolution," he explains. "Europe is either going to acquiesce in its Islamization and in the imposition of Islamic Sharia law, or its going to degenerate into large-scale conflict between non-Muslims who do not want to be quietly Islamized and the Muslim communities in Europe."

Spencer says the longer Islam is allowed to expand in Europe, the more difficult it will be for non-Muslims to prevent the Islamization of the continent.
