Yes, but you really haven't disagreed with anything I said, which was that there is a certain point at which leftism and Islam simply cannot co-exist. Obviously, neither side (in the westernized Muslim countries) have figured that out yet, but Osama and the mullahs in Tehran have.

Yes you are right, I didn't disagree in the long run. In the long run they cannot coexist. In the short run I think they can coexist. I define the short run as the time it will take to achieve their mutual goal, the destruction of the United States.

For a historical example I offer the uneasy and short lived alliance between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R that existed until Nazism was vanquished.
