Editorial : There is no clash of civilizations.

For a clash of civilizations to exist, you must have at least two civilizations.
In our historic moment, we have the western civilization with the maximum of achievements and a culture of seventh century with simple minded, repetive and emotional degrading hate for every thing that the Western Civilization has developed:
"I believe that our western civilization is , in spite of all the faults that can quite justifiably be found with it, the most free, the most just, the most humanitarian and the best of all those we have ever known throughout the history of human kind. It is the best because it has the greatest capacity for improvement. … It is only in our western civilization that the moral demand for personal freedom is widely acknowledge and even widely realized, along with the demand for equality before the law, for peace, and for the minimum of force.
This is why I regard our western civilization as the best to date. Of course it is in need of improvement. But, when all is said and done, it is the only civilization in which almost everyone is working together to improve it as much as possible.
Karl Popper

A society without democracy would be inhuman. It would not be a human society, but an ant colony.

The European struggle for freedom against Saudi Arabian Wahhabbi attacks, it not national freedom is personal freedom. Freedom is no mere ideology, but a way of life which make life better and more worth living.
