Reader comment on item: How Terrorism Harms Radical Islam
Submitted by Greg L (United States), Jan 11, 2015 at 08:01
Islam ... and from personal experience I do not write "islamist" .... is a cult of death ... the other -isms you mentioned, Dr. Pipes, had no death wish or promise of a delicious romp in the fields of endless virgins ... for certain, as long as there are Jews, there will be "islamists" .... but of course, while I do not share your optimism, I hope you are completely right ... watch your back, but stay in the battle ....
