- More than twenty male Minneapolis residents, many of them middle class and wealthy, leave America to share in terror plans in Somalia. One becomes the first American suicide-bomber. Others return to America with unknown intentions

- On multiple occasions, American soldiers plot or attempt to infiltrate their own colleagues in order to kill them.

What do all of these examples have in common? A) All of the men involved are Muslim. B) All these events, plus the events of 9/11, have happened in America since the last time an abortion doctor was murdered (in 1998).

If there are about 2,300,000 Muslims in America (according to the Pew Forum in 2007) adding up just the examples cited above means 1 Muslim male per 50,000 American Muslims has already committed an act of terror in America. Removing women from the equation, that equals 1 Muslim male per 25,000 American Muslim men who has already acted with terror. Keep in mind that such incidents have occurred at least ten times in America since the tragedy of September 11 alone. More than once per year, and increasing as time goes by.

Contrast that 1 per 25,000 figure with Scott Roeder. Many commentators have labeled Roeder a Christian, pro-life extremist. Keith Olbermann, for examples, has lumped Roeder into the category of “religious jihadist.” Never mind that Roeder says he shared in an “Old Testament Church,” whatever that is. It certainly is not Christian, since the word “church” itself originates in the New Testament, and a church without the New Testament is by definition not a church. Also, most observers continue to ignore that Roeder is a diagnosed schizophrenic, medically categorized as severely mentally ill. His personality is more reminiscent of the Virginia Tech mass-murderer than of a very lucid and articulate September 11 terrorist.

However, for argument's sake, let's assume that Roeder is a Christian. According to the American Religious Identification Survey, 75% of Americans classify themselves as “Christian.” That would be about 225,000,000 Christians in America. So, 1 Christian out of 225,000,000 has murdered an abortionist in the last 11 years in America.

Do the comparative math. Which is a greater threat to American security and lives? Which threat is the more real?

A) A 1 in 225,000,000 risk from Christians who go beyond the bounds of morality to commit murder? About once per decade?

Or

B) A 1 in 25,000 risk of American Muslim males committing a terrorist act within America itself? With ever-increasing frequency?

The answer is obvious. To everyone but the media and our President.

The bomb is ticking, not only from the outside, but from within our own borders. And the threat is real. We ignore it at our own peril.
