You are confusing tribalism with republicanism. The vast majority of Muslims are moderate. We cannot compare their worst to our best. That most Muslim countries are highly tribalistic is why you see such a Machiavellian outcome in our relations with them. Have you been to Cook County?
A real "moderate" Muslim is considered to be an apostate.
Don’t know who you are ...but no one compares their “worst” to
“our” “best”. The only relevant and fair comparisons are Gospel and Koran, Jesus-Christ and Muhamad , Christian civilizations and countries versus muslim “countries”(invaded)
and “civilization” !
I’m not confusing anything. Tribalism has nothing to do with it. Muslims have no tribes here in the US, and they’re violent here. Islam is an insane death-cult and our biggest mistake was to try to believe it could be “moderated.”
We should have devoted ourselves to destroying it if we really wanted to help these people (and the whole world, in fact).
