Islamic does not fully equate to Arab, just as Christian does not fully equate to Western. There are plenty of moderate Arab voices around.

So what point, exactly, is Bearded Bruce trying to make? Is he hoping that we'll all leap up and say "Yee Haw, these crazy rag-heads, they're all mad. Let's just nuke 'em. Heck the only good Ayrad is a dead Ayrab."? What a super way to foster understanding and trust between cultures!
A shame, though, that the US military planning and diplomatic circles seem to be full of intellectual pygmies like Bearded Bruce.
