[Paleopsych] islamic radicalism

[Lynn D. Johnson, Ph.D.]

Michael, you may want to read Howard Bloom's Lucifer Principle, which 
was published before 9/11, or so I believe. That fact is, if Islam were 
to conquer the west, there would be intense interest in forcing people 
here into their image. That is their history, and it is Bin Laden's 
goal. Islam sees the world as Dar al Islam (land of peace/submission) 
and Dar al Harb (land of war).

Consider that radical Islam may be our enemy. Respect for the enemy 
means being able to see the world through the enemy's eyes, and not 
project onto the enemy our own motivations and world-view.
