I am reprinting Caroline Glick's entire article originally published in the Jerusalem Post , here. Read it carefully, very, very carefully. Then do something--call your newspaper, talk to friends, email your contact list--to try to enlighten the world and change the reality of which she speaks, which unfortunately is the utter truth. How can we change this? Three Jewish Children Ruth Fogel was in the bathroom when the Palestinian terrorists pounced on her husband Udi and their three-month-old daughter Hadas, slitting their throats as they lay in bed on Friday night in their home in Itamar. The terrorists stabbed Ruth to death as she came out of the bathroom.

This is the response of some New York Muslims, praising the atrocity committed by Major Nadal Hassan at Ft. Hood, Texas (hat tip, Aharon): America, when will you wake up? When it's too late?
