The time has come to stop turning the other cheek. We are not dealing with an enemy who understands peace or mercy. Christianity needs to fight fire with fire. There was a reason the crusades were launched, it was to protect Christians from persecution by Muslims, irrespective of what the Islamic propaganda machine says.
