Everything you think you know about Islamist attacks is wrong and that's why we are losing
[reddit] Our rulers think Islamist terror attacks are motivated by a desire to divide Muslims from non-Muslims. To turn our society against "moderate" Muslims and drive them into the arms of Islamists.

WRONG WRONG WRONG
From the intel agencies to the Governments that pass laws, to the police and counter-terror units they are all basing policy on a wrong assumption.

If this wrong assumption were true then all the things they have been doing after every attack since 9/11 would be working: all the outreach programs, inclusion programs, the censorship to tiptoe around Muslim sensitivities, the legal concessions to blasphemy laws, the special media platforms, the Eid dinners where Muslims get the ear of our leaders and police, the special funding, the counter-terror programs... but it's NOT WORKING because it's the WRONG ANSWER because they've MISDIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM.

They have censored discussion for 17 years now. Their assumption has never been challenged. And so they think they know our enemy but they don't. They don't actually know what the enemy wants, what its strategic goals are, or how it intends to get them.
That is why we are losing.
