IMO, the intensity of the faith is also what attracts/repels the left. They in a certain sense admire the singlemindedness of islam, something they don't have or have lost; perhaps it reminds them of the way the old Soviets referred to Communism; the "inevitablity" of it.

The peace of mind that comes from allowing someone or something else to make all your decisions and life choices for you.

They are entranced by the lack of self doubt the Islamics have or appear to have. How they always blame others.

"Few blame themselves until they have exhausted all other possibilities"

Didn't the Nazis have an equal intensity of faith? Why doesn't the left admire that?
