Ah the old grey ooze theory that all cultures, people, countries etc are the same, just a different flavour. They aren't. Some are actually barbarian genocidal totalitarian tribal monsters.

There is a false idea that such barbarians are inferior to the genteel elite. That's arrogance. In the Hobbesian world red in tooth and claw, if such barbarians can win, they are in fact superior as proven by them being the currently extant dominant consciousness.

Your grey ooze theory doesn't fool them. Islam has a different geopolitical ideology which involves total conquest and submission of all others. With some serious study of Christian ideology, or Buddhist, or Hindu, or various others, you might with great intellectual strain understand a fundamental difference between Islam and most other ideologies.

That's a silly cartoon, albeit with enough truth to be amusing when comparing some countries.

It's also a crime to post it here because this is not a politics place.

But there's enough truth to it to suggest Russia vs USA fits that cartoon. Or China vs Japan.
