Nonetheless, President Bush's policy holds that the long-term key to countering the threat of fundamentalist Islam is to import our secular democratic political processes to the Islamic world -- as we have in Afghanistan and Iraq. In defense of this policy, he has ridiculed those who express doubts that these secular political processes alone can transform those cultures.

This has been my concern for several years now. I understand the religious mindset, the depth of control that deception can bring upon somebody, and it must be changed on a spiritual and revelatory level. External policies of pop culture and economics won't work.
