Uhhhh nope. I teach world and American History. The Kamikaze threat emerged very late in the war as a last gasp from a dying regime. The Japanese were short on pilots for these missions and many were horrifyingly young. Well they didn't have to worry about landing, right? Sound familiar? Many of the later aircraft used by the Divine Wind were rigged to explode their payloads should the aircraft attempt to land, before completing it's mission. No chickens allowed! The Japanese Empire was on the way down and out. In contrast, Islam is rapidly expanding and growing and drawing new converts daily. The numbers of Jap suicide pilots dwindled very quickly. The numbers of Jihadis seem to grow. They've been at it a heckuva lot longer than WWII lasted. As another poster mentioned, take a look at pre and post intifada Israel and tell me that a government wasn't impacted and a way of life altered. Think it can't happen here? Wait.
But thanks for accepting that I won't change my mind on this. We shall agree to disagree....agreeably.
I think you and I probably agree on far more than what we disagree with, but it's the disagreements that can be fun! Thanks for your thoughtful and articulate comments.
