Actually, I agree with Clinton on this one. The jihadists DO exploit our differences and some people have pointed out that given the lack of sexual expression and contact of any kind in muzlim society, that young men are very much taken in by the promises of 72 virgins and rivers of wine that won't hang you over.

You're missing my point. Of course they exploit those differences--that's obvious, and everyone in a power position uses differences from outsiders to do that.

Clinton is mistaken in believing that if we could only get to them before that happens, then the Muslims will be just like us and happy happy or whatever, but he's completely ignoring cultural differences, family, and a thousand other contributing elements to what makes us different from each other.

Why the heck would anyone want virgins? They don't know what the heck they're doing. That wine thing, though...
