Simon Jenkins correctly sees that the only serious threat is within:
There may be young Muslims and their teachers with a vested interest in talking up such a war. There are those in the West with the same interest, such as the booming armaments and security industries with their think tanks and lobbyists.
Such vested interests need to be exposed as such. To portray Islam as a whole as a concerted threat to western security, and to imply that the West’s democratic institutions and freedoms are not proof against that threat, is absurd and close to treason.
Merely ending Muslim immigration and sending non-citizens home would be enough to end the only genuine threat Muslims pose anywhere in the West, which is demographic. The fact that the West’s leaders won’t do that while pointing to Iranian and Saudi Arabian Muslims as proving the imminent need for restricting Western freedom tends to show that they are, in fact, entirely treasonous.
