I’m actually glad that The Usurper does not say “Radical Islam.”

The use of that term perpetuates the myth that there is any other kind.

Yep.
for years I have been trying to pound it into the heads of the punditry and the peasantry that it isn't extremism, but FUNDAMENTALISM.

But outside of a few FReepers, all are too ignorant or too afraid of the truth to be able to grasp it.

Radical can mean many things, among which is "of or relating to the root of something", so I look at it as a Muslim getting to his or her roots.
