| #6 WormWood. The article rightly shows two positions on Islam which are counter-productive. |

| #4 Is Islam innately evil? Yes. A major problem with the west and Islam is that so many in the west, especially the elite, can not handle the concept of the inseparable duality of Islam. It is both a totalitarian, violent political system similar in many ways to Fascism or Communism, AND it is a theological/philosophical system that preaches and justifies any and all vile actions of the political side. This idea that you can separate the two is lunacy. |

| #3 Islam is a threat to my kid. Therefore, Islam should be eradicated. |

| #2 Excellent article. As has been said before: a) The Radical Islamic jihadi believes he should surely kill you. b) The "moderate" Islamic believes the Radical Jihadi should surely kill you. |
