Just because there are radical elements of Islam that do crazy shite doesn't mean that the men with nuclear weapons at their disposal are prone to actions that will wipe their country from the face of the Earth.


Until one of the Muslims who believes Islam's teachings on martyrdom gains the means to deploy one of the weapons.


There are Muslims who are thrilled to blow themselves up in the name of Islam - I don't know how much more you need to accept that they take those teachings seriously. I am convinced.

The people who manage to wrestle control of a country's military apparatus are extremely unlikely to have the beliefs of a beleaguered goat-fricking peasant. I wouldn't worry overly much.

I'm not sympathizing with Islam one iota, I'm just saying that radicals are not the ones in control unless there is extreme chaos and dysfunction within a country. Even then, a prescient nuclear officer is likely to make sure that no one can enact their eschatological, batshit crazy urges on hundreds of millions of people.
