Good-Cop versus Bad-Cop

I think it clear that there is a good-cop/bad-cop thing going on here. The "stealth" Islamists play the good cop: "go along with our simple requests, and those bad cops won't hurt you". Sure, most people hate the bad cops.

But without the bad cops, most people would ignore the good cops, just as most non-Catholics ignore the advice of the Pope ... today.
