I find what Mr. Ratigan says quite interesting.

I dont doubt western influence has to some small degree had an effect on the true believer. But lets not forget that entire region has, since the time of muhammed's death, been swimming in tribal anarchy. IMO if in the last several centuries they havent been able to live in peace with their own relatives, in their own countries because of sectarian violence over who is the rightful heir to the throne. What in blues blazes would make me think they're going to live peace in mine? They have just brought with them their centuries old history and culture of violence.
France, Germany and other European countries have extended themselves beyond measure to provide opportunity for a better way of life and what has it gotten them? Why DO they still hate them?
