To Dr. Pipes :
"Ah, I see the anti-Islam brigade straps on its boots for another campaign of essentialism, ahistoricism, and futility."

This is definitely not a kind of constructive response.

I agree one hundred percent with Carl Goldberg.

There is no "essentialism" (a very leftish vocabulary), no "ahistoricism" (history is not an exact science and your personal point of view even less) - and futility ? - indeed, why to fight the nazism when we can search for moderate nazis (and surely find them - cf Costa-Gavras' "Amen") ?
