Ten points on why (not unlike Obama) ISIS is as much the spawn of western progressivism as it is of Islam. 1. It lends to the Muslim fundamentalist the notion that his culture of death and ignorance is legitimate and equal in value to other cultures. Since Islam is not about equality between civilizations this translates in the Jihadi mind to Islam being the superior culture and in fact ONLY civilization that should exist. 2. If you liked Che and Stalin youll LOVE Abu Baker: The progressive infatuation with radical, totalitarian, violent regimes. The blind eye turned by progressive intellectuals and institutions to the atrocities committed by whomever they consider political or financial partners. 3. The post modernism that allows a movement to base itself purely on the rejection of all things non-Islamic and particularly western, while at the same time brandishing kefir technology such as Iphones, AK47, Twitter and antibiotics. 4. The idea that there can be a universal, post-national political entity which will control the world according to the one ideology deemed appropriate. 5. The idea that violence and crime can be understood and corrected by sociological tools. 6. The idea that capitalism, personal liberty, nationalism and western religions are to blame for every problem the world has to offer and any attack on them is to be understood and perhaps applauded. 7. The simplistic notion that colonialism is only that if perpetrated by a western power and that in its own is the worst thing one human being can do to another. 8. The idea that people deserve things that are not theirs and may take them by all means necessary. 9. The idea that war, what is it good for – absolutely nothing. Well – not always. 10. The idea that there is an international law or universal human rights, except for when Israel is concerned.
