No, we are not fighting Bahais. Or Sufis. However, the Qu'ran would have to be entirely rewritten before the world could accept Islam. That's not going to happen, of course.

The only hope is that Islamists secularize, but then, we are facing another problem. Secular humanism and global socialism. Most secular Muslims are heading left en masse. They are Chomsky-addicts, Soros OSI lackeys, U.N. supporters.

And I wouldn't want to leave out the Che revolutionaries in Damascus.

I agree with that assessment. The marginal advantage to the present situation is that at least we would be dealing with enemies who more or less inhabit the same real-world that we do. They would tend moreso to weigh the cost/benefit ratio thoughtfully when developing their strategy toward us.

I would rather face a relatively sane ideological enemy than a religious extremist who has a book that says it's foretold that as outgunned as he is, God guarantees him victory over us -- and besides, there is No Future, so he might as well go down taking as many of us with him as he can.
