Mark Steyn is a brilliant man.
In a December 13, 2005 entry concerning the outcry over Tookie Williams' execution, I concluded that "Europe is dying." I'd like to modify this slightly. The West is dying. There is none in the EU who has the will to stand at Europe's gates to proclaim to the forces of Islam, "You shall not pass!" In America, the days of the American revolutionaries who cried, "No King but King Jesus" have long passed and is being replaced by soft tolerance and relativistic worldviews.
