Er, you may not have noticed in your screed, but that was exactly what I was doing - distinguishing between the ordinary guy who probably doesn’t care and just wants to get on with his life, and the radical flakes.
The problem is that our passivity has encouraged the radical flakes to attack Christians (and our enshrining Islam in the Iraqi constitution encouraged both parties of radical flakes to think they could get control of the country, so I think it even encouraged fighting between the Muslims themselves).
You’re right — I didn’t notice your qualifying comment. My apologies.
