Just from a logical perspective, it is the Islamists's belief that we don't stand for anything that gives radical Islam its energy and its conviction in its ultimate triumph.

Excellent point.

No, it is not the the conviction that we don't stand for anything that gives Islam its energy, it the knowledge that the Middle Easterners are submissive cowards, completely controlled by their ruling religious leaders, and the only thing in their lives that relieves their feelings of impotence is to kill in the name of their fascist religion. The west is the target of their hatred because in comparison, the Islamists come up so short, that they can't stand it.
