Europe could soon be conquered by Islam. Will America be next? Tony Blankley on how we can stop the global jihad and save Western civilization

The West's Last Chance

by Tony Blankley

Islamic jihadists are far closer than most people realize to taking over Europe. If they do, they'll impose governments there that would threaten the United States far more than Nazi Germany ever did. But there is still hope to save both Europe and America: in The West's Last Chance: Will We Win the Clash of Civilizations?, Tony Blankley explains what we must do now in order to survive the jihadist infiltration and subversion that now threatens Europe's very life.

Blankley confronts the blind denial that holds sway in the corridors of power and among the mainstream media in both Europe and America -- denial that jihadist Islam is transforming the world. He demonstrates that the European elites, and far too many American politicians and journalists, believe that our challenges are business and politics as usual, when in fact we face a challenge that is certain to transform our civilization one way or the other. He emphasizes that, amid the official rush after every Islamic terror attack to exonerate Islam and Moslems from any responsibility for it, Europe and America are in mortal danger from Islamic radicalism -- and despite the negative signs, he is still optimistic that we can win.

The real threat: not "terror," but resurgent Islam

The threat, as Blankley details, is not merely from Osama bin Laden and a few thousand terrorists. Rather, he maintains, we are confronted with a newly militant and expansionist Islam -- a global phenomenon the world has not seen for centuries. Islam today poses a radical threat to the values, culture, and traditions that began to form in Europe 1,500 years ago under the influence of early Christianity. Blankley explains why the West's response to this challenge has been so feeble up to now, and why analysts and observers should not be fooled into assuming that the more or less benign trends of the recent past will continue. It's time for bold, imaginative new recommendations, such as those Blankley details here. He asks the hard questions -- and gives the straight answers -- that our country needs to hear.

The West's Last Chance reveals:

• Why the threat of jihadists taking over Europe in the near future is every bit as great a threat to the U.S. as was the threat of the Nazis taking over Europe in the 1940s
• How far too much of what we hear about the War on Terror is not about facts that will help us know our enemy -- an essential element of winning the war -- but about domestic partisan politics or political ideology
• What would really happen if Islamic terrorists acquired weapons of mass destruction (it's worse than you think)
• How Europe is already well on its way to being a launching pad for global Islamic terrorism
• Why it is in America's deepest strategic interests for a non-Islamic Europe to survive and recover its strength
• Europe's death wish: the plummeting birthrates that could devastate the Continent -- and how the United States could soon face a similar fate
• Why both our government and the European Union are hesitating to fight against the Islamic jihad threat with all their might
• Why there is no margin for error in the War on Terror, and small mistakes or errors of judgment could have catastrophic consequences
• Liberalism: how it has degenerated from the war-winning policies of FDR to an ideology of Western suicide
• Why, if insurgent Islam had arisen even a generation earlier, Europe would doubtlessly have put it down with her traditional confidence, acumen, and ruthlessness
• Secular Europe: why it cannot save itself -- Europeans must return to the Church if they hope to defeat the jihad threat
• Multiculturalism and political correctness: advocated in media and academe and institutionalized in national and European Union laws and regulations for half a century -- and now threatening Europe's very survival

The West's Last Chance is disquieting reading, but all the more necessary for that. This is an essential exposition of what we must do now in order truly to win the War on Terror -- not in Iraq or Afghanistan, but on our very own doorstep. In 1941, the West stood together against the forces of barbarism. We need to do so again. This urgently needed book explains why, and how.

"A great book. To win the War on Terror, you have to include Tony Blankley's The West's Last Chance and its antidote to the blame-America-first liberals and their suicidal complacency. Buy it, read it, and use it." -- Rush Limbaugh, host of The Rush Limbaugh Show

"Tony Blankley treats the Islamist threat with the gravity and urgency it deserves. Not enough of our leaders do. The West's Last Chance is an incisive and invaluable book." -- Michelle Malkin, author of In Defense of Internment

"Tony Blankley gets it! The enemy is much more than al Qaeda and the stakes are much higher than most people realize. A timely, thoughtful, and provocative read." -- Governor Tom Ridge, former secretary of the Department of Homeland Security

"An extremely controversial, thought-provoking treatment of an important subject." -- Henry Kissinger, former national security adviser and secretary of state

"For anyone interested in an uncertain world and our nation's place in it, current and future events make Tony Blankley's exceptional book, The West's Last Chance, a must-read." -- Senator Bob Dole, former Senate leader and author of One Soldier's Story

"Tony Blankley's breadth of vision and understanding are breathtaking: Few others have the courage or insight needed to tell you just how deep a fix the Western world is in, or to offer practical and useful solutions for its salvation. Blankley does all this and more with admirable eloquence, erudition, and wit." -- Robert Spencer, author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades)
