My expectation is that, following the largely Islamic invasion of
Israel (Ezekiel 38 & 39), and God's destruction of the invaders, the
West will place its trust in the Antichrist, who will "mop up" any
remaining Muslims who threaten the "peace" of the West and / or 
Israel.

Europe Is Growing Skeptical Of Dialogue With Muslims

After years of dithering over political correctness with Muslims 
and Islam, Europe is waking up to a different morning.

A three-week tour of Italy, France, and Britain last month was enough
for me to conclude that Western Europeans have moved way beyond
dialogue. Confrontation, indeed even provocation, is their preferred
approach to the Muslims in their midst.

Long before Pope Benedict XVI's scathing comments in mid-September 
on the fallacy of phony Muslim-Christian dialogue, signs of hardening
European views toward current Islamic values were plentiful on the
Continent.

[...]

Should the region's despotic regimes be toppled, a number of press
outlets observed, their successors would be even nastier murderers.
Possibilities include the saber-wielding soldiers of the Muslim
Brotherhood and its tributaries - Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, 
and the Algerian Armed Islamic Group, among others - men who believe 
in carrying out ritual killings of their fellow Muslims even before the
slaughter of infidels.

The common view in Europe is that pseudo-secularist tyrants in Muslim
lands like Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan, Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, and
King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia share the same aspirations to dominate,
wage war, and rule as Osama bin Laden, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, and Ayman
al-Zawahiri of Al Qaeda.

[...]

Europeans now see a need not to massage the Muslim ethos but to remove
it. One can talk forever of the necessity for Islam to reform itself,
but that fails to resonate within Muslim societies, Europeans tell me.

My European tour made it eminently clear that Western Europeans 
- if not their more liberal, compromised ruling and business elites 
- believe that for Muslims living in the West, it's either Western 
ways or the highway.

Harsh, maybe, but that is how it stands.

[...]

The dialogue is over. The time for action is closing in.
