Obuscation is at the root of these posters message.

Good Post but I believe you meant obfuscation. (typo?)

ob·fus·cate Pronunciation Key (bf-skt, b-fskt)
tr.v. ob·fus·cat·ed, ob·fus·cat·ing, ob·fus·cates
To make so confused or opaque as to be difficult to perceive or understand: “A great effort was made... to obscure or obfuscate the truth” (Robert Conquest).
To render indistinct or dim; darken: The fog obfuscated the shore.

It is not rhetorical obfuscation.It is based on the demographics of the muslim world and the fact that many millions of the young in the Mid-East, are angry and live in chaos, they need a handle to hang onto to give their life meaning; and the easy way is to form a Jihad based faith in Allah and join it in THEIR belief we are the Demon.To us Osama bin Laden is evil, to them he is a magnificient hero, and to think they don't think that, is to lie to oneself.
That's is the reality and isn't going to go away.
And am i trying to see into the future??? You damn right i am! For a motive do i paint my view? no!.
I express what my intellect demands and whether people like it or not i don't give a damn.
The U.S. government has members that have stated this will last for decades(and have done so repeatedly) but the good old american new age boomer type tunes it out, the don't worry be happy foundation of our present country.
