I think this article is bad. The Islamic fundamentalists are not motivated by anti-capitalism. When was the last time Osama bin Laden condemned "capitalism". The Soviets did it all the time. I have never heard OBL say it.

What do you think the World Trade Center symbolizes?

I agree this is a bad article.

The CATO institute has been promoting "open borders" and massive, unregulated immigration for years.

Now, they want to place blame elsewhere.

The barbarians are not at the gate, they are within the walls of the city and the CATO institute helped ensure their entry, all for the sake of "cheap labor".

This article is an utterly shameless distraction.

I have never heard OBL say it.

How much have you ever heard OBL say??

The truth is, of course, that radical Islam condemns the west, including capitalism. Some anti-capitalists embrace OBL from the view that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". Many fellow travellers around these days.

It must take a lot of effort to miss the main point, which was quite clear.
Of course the Islamic fundamentals don't dwell on the nuances, and may not even be aware of them.
They are merely the shock troops of the larger army.

As to the world-wide wealth redistribution element? is it any suprise that even the ex-First Rapist now repeats that need shamelessly?
