#1 liberal thinkers on the Left attempt to claim

A contradiction and a tautology in one sentence.

#2 Maajid Nawaz may be a heroic guy but I think he underestimates (actually he sort of denies) the problem that Islamic terrorism is a logical outcome of the Koran, Hadith and Sunna.

#3 It's nice that the Left has found a bunch of gun-toting religious fanatics with whom it can relate.

#4 Lord Garth - read the whole thing at the link, you will see maajid specifically says that terrorism is to do with Islam and that terrorists are quoting scripture when they throw gays from rooves etc.

he does not deny it at all

#5 that's why I said, "...sort of denies..." because he wants to retain Islam but lose the terrorism, intimidation and so on

yes, this can be done by various theological means and several sects of Islam - alevi, ismaeli, amahdi have done this to some degree -- but that doesn't really solve the problem because as long as the Koran (and haditha and sunna) are out there and considered divine, they are a source for terrorism --

#6 Yes, what is being sold is "math class" - without the math. Not believable...

#7 His claim as highlighted in the article's title is essentially correct. The loss of the USSR was a severe blow to the homegrown leftist, which was their main bulwark against the West. 9/11 provided them with a suitable replacement and they immediately set about appropriating Islam for their own goals, which has always been to destroy the notion of Western Culture. And, they do this without any instruction. It's ingrained in their indoctrination and they seek to spread it. That's why see in US, Canada, and now Austria, school children singing songs in praise of Allah. Allah's lieb ist so wunderbar!
