#1 The writer sounds like an apostate to my untutored ear.

He knows his Muslim history and its numerous examples where otherwise incompetent leaders like Gemal Abdul Nasser of Egypt won the love and loyalty of the masses just by defying the West and challenging the U.S.

And what happened to Mr. Nasser afterwards? Did he actually get the houris he so craved?

#3 He was a Muslim-world male, gromgoru. Just because he didn't believe in them didn't mean he didn't want them. For that matter, I seem to have grown up to be a Western realistic idealist; but I still dream of "Peace on Earth/ Goodwill to Men."
