Many feel safer Canadians and their American counterparts because of lack of Canada to United States support and the war in Iraq. Aslos believe that Canada is free and clear of terrorism because it is a peaceful nation.
This past weekend dispelled that myth has shown Canadians sitting back and does nothing to combat evil and terror will not keep free of horrendous bloody acts.
This past weekend were 17 Canadians of Muslim origin were arrested in what officials say planned further attacks milestones Canadians (CNN.com).
Canada is just as vulnerable as any other free and democratic nation. The reason is Canada Western ideologies and beliefs are under attack by Muslim extremists who don't care that Canada has tried to distance itself from America and United Kingdom.
As any country believes in democracy, freedom, the equality of men and children and prosperity for all its citizens, will come under attack by Muslim extremists who believe that these ideals are contrary to the teachings of Islam.
While extremists are in a minority and do not reflect the majority of Muslims who reject such extreme ideologies, there are still hundreds of thousands of Muslims who are willing to die for their mistaken beliefs.
These extremists are causing terror and evil in the world and are aimed at the peaceful nations such as Canada.
Canadians must wake up and begin to fight against these murderers. Canadians have a better chance of survival if counterattack. Sitting back and hoping that not be a destination they will be disastrous.
Canada is a sort that were able to thwart the would be attackers. Officials say more arrests are possible.
What makes this case particularly worrying is that many of those who were detained were born in Canada and raised with ideals of Canada.
Something went wrong and these youngsters rejected these wonderful ideologies. By all accounts, their community had embraced the Canadian values.
This is a truly regrettable episode for Canadians and once again is losing her innocence to horrific incidents like these.
This is also an opportunity for Canadians to react positively, with decision and firmness against terrorism.
