My summary... don't try to talk to anyone after you've decided that they are part of an extremist group. Just kill them.
I'm troubled by the implication that such a group of people is easily identified. This column, with the invented term "Islamofascist," offers no explanation of how to identify one. All Islamic people? Or are there other criteria, such as "Islamic terrorists," in which case the word "Islamic" is superfluous.
I'm no fan of big media and there's no question in my mind that its habitual, cynical polarization of virtually everything is a force for evil in the world. But the talk in this column and others of what suits the media's purposes is naive. Big media is focused on its own power and money, which is not a partisan political agenda. I'm not sure that the two major U.S. political parties are very different from the media in that respect.
I hear so much self-righteous talk about giving blame and not enough about forgetting about blame and taking responsibility.
