Irrespective of the effects of inbreeding on any population, I respectfully submit that it would be a mistake to attribute fervent Islamic radicalism to a lack of education or intelligence. There is something else at play here that is much more unsettling.

I do see a difference between Islamists (political Islam, sharia law advocates) and Muslims. I worked a few years with Muslims from Turkey including almost a year in Ankara.. years before the current Islamist AK Party government.
