Davidson's Right: It's Religion

 Twenty-four years ago, we stated LOUDLY that the 9/11 event was a religion problem, contrary to the wish-casting of Bush the Dumber.

Maybe Davidson had written about that before we said it; maybe not.  Don't care.

Bush and the Cloud People (the Establishment) think in terms of money, prestige, and power.  Trump has the same problem, although sometimes less obvious.

Muslims and observant Jews think otherwise.  Christians worthy of the name think otherwise.

A  quarter-century removed from the terrorist attacks of 9/11, several things are now obvious that were not at all obvious to American elites in 2001 (although they should have been). Perhaps the most obvious, as I wrote earlier this week, is that the attacks inaugurated a religious war that we have lost, or at least are in the process of losing. The West failed to recognize the religious nature of the conflict because it was committed to a secular liberal account of the world that dismissed the role of religion and religious claims in shaping cultures and societies....

Davidson is right.  The Crusaders were right.  The Reconquista warriors were right.  Jan III Sobieski was right.

Mohammed was a Great Heretic, and no matter Shi'a or Sunni, his followers are, too.  A few are "peaceful."  But the not-so-peaceful ones in your neighborhood are not wearing signs, are they?
