Isus, Al Qeda, Taliban....it does seem to matter.
These are zealots of the highest order who follow the ramblings of a 7th century sociopathic pedophile...
Applying 7th century sensibilities in 2014 is the cause of all radicalism in this so called religion.
Never has such a retrograde force of antiquated beliefs and mores been more powerful.
We are all impossibly outgunned in the fight against radical islam because most western societies have evolved under a much more sympathetic ethos.
How can you defeat a cult of death who values the loss of life over living...simply put, they welcome death.
The spread of islam will sweep the world in the coming centuries of all things....
Science and reason will be supplanted by religious laws bent on the subjugation of women and the genocide of homosexuals.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Cripes that seems true today. Wasn't the west just funding Syrian rebels earlier this year? I'm not getting this.

I agree with everything you said until the end where you imply that they will win. These zealots have barley made it out of the stone age and if they push the west too far we could make their wish for death come true with a small fraction of our military might.

My wife is an inner city er physician in a top 5 volume er in north america.
She has been an attending for over 15 years in various hospitals throughout the metroplex.
As for the patient population, they are a societal mess I will agree.
But unlike in islamic theocracies, america prosecutes misconduct by applying rule of law blind of religious structure(by that i mean we dont offer archaic punishments espoused in the bible as such barbarity is recognized as antiquated and unenlightened-cutting off limbs or sacrifices, etc).
Though i will grant you that US law on the whole is based upon the judeo-christian ethos with an evolved application.
And thank god it is or my sibling would have been stoned long ago for homosexuality.
We grew up southern baptists who are fervent in their disdain for this lifestyle but i am yet to hear of a baptist sanctioned stoning in the 20th or 21st century.
Islam, on the other hand, handles infidels with the sensibilities of the spanish inquisition.
So perhaps i was rash in blanketing their ideology as having a basis in the 7th century.
Lets say that islamists are as enlightened as middle age spanish inquisitors.
Is that a fair assessment of radical devotees of the prophet?
