ORIGINAL: PeonForHer Speaking of which, it might be as well to stop and think for a bit about whether we have, in fact, grasped 'reality' when it comes to Islamist terrorism. See, one thesis has it that the purpose of such acts is to provoke a backlash against not just Islamists but all those claiming to represent the Muslim faith. This would radicalise (especially young) Muslims who've hitherto been moderate. Once radicalised, of course, they now have a 'home' to go, in ISIS. Either that, or they could be welcomed into the arms of Al Quaeda .... Given that, yep, the terrorists and those on the extreme right who stand against them do have one, very crucial, aim in common: to get everyone else to see the world as they both do: as one mass population of 'right-thinking good people' against another mass population of 'wrong-thinking bad people'. Even your own words help to establish how it is the leftists of the world who are determined to dehumanize and / or diminish those who disagree with them, as the Islamists do
