Questions for the west

Here is a remarkable article by an Iranian, Daniel Shaysteh, a former Muslim who has now converted to Christianity. He describes a childhood upbringing in which his religion taught him to hate those who were not Muslims, and how he eventually came to reject Islam altogether. What jumps out of the article, however, is his scathing condemnation of the west for failing to grasp what he knows from first-hand experience to be the truth: 

Why are some leftist groups and individuals standing alongside radical Islamic leaders in order to fight democratic values in the West?  Why are many western leaders, politicians, media and various groups silent towards the threat of Islam against their societies?  What is keeping these people quiet in such a significant time when a religious group challenges not just their democratic values but additionally forces them to surrender to their bondage?  Why are free people prepared to surrender to those who would place them in bondage?

 
…Muslim leaders and the Qur’an will not compromise with the West, but they are delighted if the West chooses to compromise with Islam…What has caused the West to allow tolerance for such violence and hatred which undermine the freedom of the majority?  Why has the West forgotten its heroes who laid down their lives for freedom decades and centuries ago?  What has caused the West to betray its heroes? Why is Islam, which is under obligation to gain power over other nations, evidently more acceptable in the West than any other religious group?
