Ignoring reality of Islamist hate will lead to disaster

Government must do better or moderate Muslims, Jews and the rest of society will pay the price
Assessment
The piece argues that the government's failure to confront the reality of Islamist extremism directly endangers moderate Muslims, Jews, and broader society. The warning is that inaction or denial will not make the threat disappear but will instead allow it to fester. The reader should watch for whether official responses to specific incidents shift from vague condemnation to concrete policy changes. The stakes are public safety and social cohesion, with the clock ticking on the government's credibility.
