That one about the drinking binges was new ..I hate when the substance of the article is clouded by exaggeration, misinformation, rumor, and lies.

The whole tone of the article strikes me as being too down on Western civilization (including the remark about genetically engineered foods) and very apologetic.

I call the extremism Islamonazism because it shares several aspects with the German Nazis (including a superiority complex, antisemitism, and brutal violence). Islamofascism is a misnomer. Islam is a political system (as well as a religion) but is their system fascist?

9-11 was a horrible series of attacks but it was a cowardly deed (I differ with the opinion of Bill Maher). The terrorists (I differ with AP and am willing to call them this) murdered a handful of people directly (pilots, stewardesses) and blindly killed thousands.

The Beslan attacks were far more brutal (longer situation and raping and murdering hundreds of school kids) yet they merit scant remembrance in the press.
