The Fisk theory is racist, they hate us for being white...The Bush theory is based on different philosophies...

I can see nothing racist in Fisk's account; he believes that he is seen as the enemy:

And – I realised – there were all the Afghan men and boys who had attacked me who should never have done so but whose brutality was entirely the product of others, of us – of we who had armed their struggle against the Russians and ignored their pain and laughed at their civil war and then armed and paid them again for the "War for Civilisation" just a few miles away and then bombed their homes and ripped up their families and called them "collateral damage".
