I would want to hope “they would calm down on their own.” But that is something I think that history has shown not possible with Islam.

Yes, technology and the internet can certainly pass on knowledge not contained in the Qur’an. But you also know that the internet can be a boon to both sides of the political spectrum and all manner in between. You only need go looking on the ISIS fighter web pages and social for that.

Media has been shaping and molding ideologies (mostly leftist) for decades. As print and broadcast media are dying out, others take their place in the internet. Still molding and still shaping with lies too busy to seek out the elusive truth.

I hope you’re right, really. But they’ll never give up on destroying Israel, and they won’t lose their zeal to convert the entire world to their religion.

All the same things you said about Islam were said about the Japanese for hundreds, if not thousands of years.

They were isolated fanatics ready to conquer and die for the emperor. And treat their conquests as chattel.

2 generations of cultural exposure and they were completely changed!
