It looks like the Houston Chronicle is beginning to get it.

Pointless….***….Some Arabs, frustrated by their culture's economic, political and technological backwardness, no doubt long for an Islamic ascendancy, one that would teach the Western democracies a lesson. Some even speak of restoring the caliphate that during the Middle Ages controlled much of the Mediterranean world.

At this point, one speculation about the perpetrators of terrorism and their aims is about as good as another. One impression, however, is gaining strength: The savage and unconscionable nature of the suicide attacks on innocent civilians — particularly in Iraq, where a group of children was singled out for destruction — seems to be alienating all but the most committed zealots and mass murderers.***

Is the Houston Chronicle now getting its talking points directly from Hillary "Let's Talk Tough" Clinton?
