Tony Abbott is right to call Islamic State a death cult, but the question must be asked: is the West’s tolerance of the intolerant a death wish? And when many on the Left blindly refuse to identify terrorism, isn’t that furthering the death wish? When a killer slaughters people in the name of Islam, we should take him at his word. Monis is the newest form of terrorist. There is no Islamic State membership card, no initiation ceremony, no formal welcoming morning tea. Moreover, terrorism is not a numbers game. It’s not about the number of perpetrators who organise an attack. It’s about the motivation of the attacker. It’s done to instil fear, to attack our values, to undermine our confidence in our own culture. theaustralian.au/opinion/columnists/sorry-history-of-tolerating-the-intolerant/story-e6frg7bo-1227165583579
