How about 'unwitting agitator' at best ( taking him at his word ).
It is true: his alleged attempt to counter the image of muslims as fanatical and murderous barbarians had the opposite effect. Yet more people, who may have had reservations about muslim brutality, have reservations no longer.
Muslims have led the world in terror the past few decades. They have been exposed for cultural savagery and fanaticism. The riots of France a few months ago are eclipsed by the current violence.
What else can the civilized world think but that islam is an out of control "religion" and its practitioners are fiendish monsters, bent on destruction.
Nice work, Ahmed!
