kb: Your comment about the depraved state of manhood in some
of the extremist precincts is truer and sadder than you know, unless you've see this:

three little girls who were raped for days by Taliban soldiers who killed their mother when she tried to protect them - the youngest was aged 9. She was able to film things other people could not because she speaks Pashtu and she wore a burka with a video camera concealed inside.

I'm no psychologist, but it seems to me that extremist Muslims have remarkably base, temporal, motives for their slaughter and suppression in the name of God. These appear from their obsession with subjugating women, with the 76 virgins they're counting on after martyrdom (where do all these virgins come from, anyway, won't a "holy" war outrun demand?), and with destruction of what they can't create. A pathetic remnant of Arabic civilization, not that all Muslims are Arabs.

Some media attention to the nature and sincerity of extremists' belief is warranted here. Nihilists and murderers can only spew rationalizations in the guise of prayer; the real thing surely requires a spirituality lacking in these barbarians.
