An attempt is made to share the truth regarding issues concerning Israel and her right to exist as a Jewish nation. This blog has expanded to present information about radical Islam and its potential impact upon Israel and the West. Yes, I do mix in a bit of opinion from time to time.

UK military apologizes for firing range 'mosques'
British army says it did not intend to use structures that resemble mosques for training

The British military has apologized for offending a Muslim group by using structures resembling mosques at a target range.
The military says it did not intend for the structures to look like mosques and that the structures were not actually being fired on. The Bradford Council for Mosques is calling for the immediate removal of the structures at the Bellerby firing range at Catterick Garrison in North Yorkshire, 250 miles (400 kilometers) north of London.
The group's chief executive, Mohammed Saleem Khan, says it is obvious the structures look like mosques.
Military officials said Thursday they want to meet with the Muslim group to explain that no offense was intended. Officials have not said whether the structures will be removed.
Elsewhere, earlier this week, it was reported that President Barack Obama's advisers will remove religious terms such as "Islamic extremism" from the central document outlining the US national security strategy and will use the rewritten document to emphasize that the United States does not view Muslim nations through the lens of terror, counterterrorism officials said.
The change is a significant shift in the National Security Strategy, a document that previously outlined the Bush Doctrine of preventative war and currently states: "The struggle against militant Islamic radicalism is the great ideological conflict of the early years of the 21st century."
Comment: So much for recognizing who the enemy is-thus, the strategies and therefore the tactics are now ill-informed and most probably ill-advised. The West has capitulated and we shall feel their error in judgment.
