You think you understand Islamic radicals? Who told you that, Rush Limbaugh? Do you righjtwingers even KNOW any Luslims? Ever met one? Or just going on pure cliched hatred like the Islamic radicalss themselves are?

The rightwing Bushies have PROVEN they don't understand Islamic peoples at all. They invaded Iraq without even knowing the difference between Sunni and SHia. First they allied with the Shias, then El Sadr turned against them and now they are back allied with SUnnis, who produced Saddam Hussein and Obama Bin Laden.

The fact is, and this is a fact, that poor unemployed oppressed peoples often can scapegoat other races or creeds without even knowing for sure why they are doing it. Sometimes they are also brainwashed like the religious right kids in the film JESUS CAMP. Young people can be taught to hate and even kill, but if the "enemy" changes faces and can no longer be scapegoated rationally, with President Obama for instance, the whole Jihadadist craze might just evaporate. It will never totally disappear, but the dangers of it miught be reduced more than if we were to invade every single Muslim country and kill half thgeir people. In fact more invasions would have the opposite effect we want, as is proven in Iraq.
