Pecan, this article is nothing outside the normal western resolve. it was useless even posting it BC it doesn't give any new insight into anything, just the same ole rhetoric that's been on display in the media since 2000 after the attack on the USScole.
it's also very bias since the author made no attempt to be @ least a little objective, but said basically the same thing every fox news analyst has been saying for yrs. it's this same bias mentality that has kept the world up in arms and places like congo and niger dirt poor while their resources are the most coveted in the world today.
next time yuh want to post an article to shed some true light, post something from a non bias source like john esposito, ramsey clark or even dominique sourdel, but these Conservative meat and potato ppl basically saying the same bias sh!t.
i eh know where to start so I'll limit my response to a question, a comment, a question and a comment
Question: By 'unbiased', do you mean the definition commonly found in an English dictionary or do you mean anything that does not conform to your world view?
Comment: I freely admit that I am not familiar with non-biased sources such as John Esposito. So I looked him up in Wikipedia.
Question: am I to conclude that a scholar who founded the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University and is its current director, who is being bankrolled by Saudi Arabian Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal to the tune of $20 million is truly non-biased? I truly do not know. If you would be so kind as to post some of his recent works that sheds light on the discourse, i would be grateful (and I am not being sarcastic or factitious).
Comment: the sniping between you and TC does not shed any light on the topic so I would argue that at least my 'biased' post presents another view of the issue
