The horrors American violence has wreaked on the Muslim world in Iraq, Afghanistan and, as early as 1986, in Libya (above): the US "military machine", as left-wing analysts are fond of calling it, has undermined the values of freedom and justice associated with the most powerful country in the world...

... And so has Muslim insurgency threatened the stability and security of American outposts throughout the world, a long and bloody saga culminating in the horror of September 11.

The neocon nightmare: American leaders of the anti-Muslim persuation praying piously, evidence of the uncanny similarity in worldview between the so-called fundamentalists and neoconservatives, who subscribe to similarly literalist and reductive forms of evangelical Christianity
