Yeah, I'm pretty sure the idea that we're as bad as our enemies is coming out of "our" schools.

resent it all you like, the similarities are the problem. There's a reason these guys don't like us and its much the same one that we don't like them.

I'd say it has more to do with facts. It's hard to look in the mirror and see a monster looking back.

Welcome to Subsim, Frömmler, good post as well!

Why should I care if ISIS likes us? Maybe worrying too much about what terrorists think of us is the real problem here. The Chamberlinian attitude that if we just try to get along with them they'll leave us alone is the height of foolishness.
