Islam and Modernity

Below is a quote from Bat Ye'or, in an interview by Tundra Tabloids:
"[The Muslim Brotherhood] is very dangerous, for it has adopted a Western language to undermine the West. It aims to Islamise modernity, not to modernize Islam."
This is part of what I was trying to say in my previous post "Modern Day Barbarians":
Our modern day barbarians have risen and are in war mode. Muslims have told us through their holy book, in their mosques, by their historical trajectory, and even in our own sacrosanct institutions of learning and knowledge, that they are getting ready. They are not satisfied with borrowed land and borrowed culture. Most important, though, they will not tolerate our God and our religion.
Tundra Tabloids is a Finnish website dedicated to (from its masthead): 
Keeping tabs on the most outrageous happenings in the Middle East, Islamist extremism, and Islamist hegemony in Scandinavia and on the political correctness that allows them to flourish.
