How do you deal with people who believe they are right and all others are wrong? What kind of conflict arises when we cannot discuss anything without reciting passages from holy books. Such a path leads only to chaos.
The current religious conflict is not confined to the hateful Islamic extremists who call themselves Muslim but do not follow the Qur’an. The hate filled muslims are fighting because the west (christianity) invaded muslim lands. The view such an invasion as a war against Islam.
Bush does not want to admit that by invading a muslim country, he has started a religious war.
The plot for 9/11 was not hatched in Iraq. It was hatched by a Saudi named Bin Laden in Afghanistan who once worked for the CIA.
Avoiding reality results in negative consequences. The Bush fantasy of bringing democracy to the middle east is equal to the fantasy that america could bring democracy to southeast asia. Reality does not work that way.
