That's the stereotype. Do you have any idea how many of the wogs who also have a penchant for using suicide bombs to take out large number of folks are also college grads? You'd be astounded. Do not ever underestimate this enemy as being blind ignorant illiterate religious zealots. They may be religious zealots but they ain't ignorant! In fact, IMHO, the most deadly of the Jihadis are those we educated at the Ivy League schools and that is a whole bunch! It took a lot of planning (planning takes brains and organization) to put together all of the AQ attacks besides 911.
Darned right they're not ignorant. They are teaching subversiveness to anyone who will listen at our own country's colleges.
