cameron has to find a better adjective than poisonous to describe muslim fundamentalism.

it is clearly not seen that way by many young muslim men. and yet it leads them to do wicked things when they surrender to it.

it is poisonous, of course. but you are trying to affect people so they don't end up entrapped by a monstrous ideal, with an apparently attractive veneer. the islamists argue that muslims can heroically protect islam from corruption, can play a role in banding together to defend the umma. but it turns these young men into savages who behead and crucify people, starve then on a mountain, bury women and children alive, shoot those they capture.

how about corrosive or carcinogenic? how about calling the ideals pseudo-islamic? how about clarifying how they operate?

he wants to influence conversations within the muslim community. that's where the cure will occur. if we cannot affect a cure, then we cannot live together.
