Axis of Islam

If you need some REFTRA about what is going on - or even if you know it all, you have to read Efraim Karsh's bit on OpinionJournal, Islam's Imperial Dreams.

...the fact is that the fuel of Islamic imperialism remains as volatile as ever, and is very far from having burned itself out. To deny its force is the height of folly, and to imagine that it can be appeased or deflected is to play into its hands. Only when it is defeated, and when the faith of Islam is no longer a tool of Islamic political ambition, will the inhabitants of Muslim lands, and the rest of the world, be able to look forward to a future less burdened by Saladins and their gory dreams.

LGF and Powerline are on top of it as well.
