Great article. I think that the Islamists are overplaying their hand. It has become increasingly obvious since 9/11 that acts of Islamic terrorism have been and are being inspired by a religious ideology that is bent on world domination. That these are not disconnected acts of violence that have been "caused" by the actions of Westerners. While the liberals and the anti-Semitic paleo-cons persist in a state of denial about who and what this enemy really is, most open-minded people realize that radical Islam is very dangerous, indeed.

Agreed, a great article.
Overplaying their hand? I think not. They are acting out the world view in which they are immersed. Aside from the US there is no systematic opposition to their ambitions. Even here they have 50% of Americans on their side.
World domination is fraught with difficulties. Best to remain oblivious and move forward with one's jihad. Jihadist fanatics are mixing up their game nicely. They know the rules of no limit Texas hold-em. It may be that the World Poker Tour is the best preparation we have for a world at war.
