Absolutely. I don't knock the effort, but this clearly going to fall on angry ears wanting a simple solution and a simply defined enemy.

most of these reactions play into the Islamists hands, and make this weird self-fulfilling prophecy which feeds into the Islamists propaganda machine. 


Wholly agree. Worth posting over and over again, won't get any traction. Tonight is a race who can come up with the most creative plan for Muslim genocide.

Luckily Western leaders have been more judicious with respect to their own Islamic populations.


I worry about when the will of the people demand a less judicious response.

Well if it happens, then the Islamists will have won, and the ideology won't be eradicated for a while. It's like poking a bear to see if it will attack you, and then using that reaction to justify poking it in the first place. The asymmetry is the one advantage the Islamists have, as well as a disenfranchised underclass of Sunni Muslims who have believed in, and been failed by, ideologies like Arab nationalism, communism, socialism, Ba'athism, and others before.

The attack on Islamists has to be multifaceted. A public overreaction could have devastating consequences, namely that it will enshrine Islamism as the protector of Muslims everywhere.
