Thanks for the message of understanding. Let me see if we can go one step further. I know that you think these are avowed Communists because they take advantage of the Communist's willingness to help them cause trouble. Wouldn't you agree that the Muslims are taking advantage of the help, but are no more committed to Communism than they are to Western ideology, even though they also take advantage of that that it suits them?
If you can accept that, then you and I are in full agreement.
It seems to me that Communism is an ideology which - whatever "merits" or demerits anyone perceives in it - is undeniably suited to the aggrandizement of unaccountable power.It seems to me that Islam is a worldview which - whatever "merits" or demerits anyone perceives in it - is undeniably suited to the aggrandizement of unaccountable power.
What would prevent someone who lusted after power from being attracted to a synthesis of Islam and Communism? About as much, I would think, as prevents a Communists from being attracted to Fascism. IOW, nothing as important to the psychopath as the attraction of power is . . .
