#1 "The enemy isn't so much Islam as it is Salafism,"

Khomeinism aka "Wilayat al Faqih" is what woke up Islam as a political enemy of Western Civilization in the 20th century. We'd ignore this "Shiite Salafism" at our peril.

"Just as we must guard against those who would use atrocities to spread bigotry"

Why is opposition and/or rejection of a political platform 'bigotry' if the adherents of said platform claim some sort of supernatural endorsement for their political goals?

Decades ago the US government not only officially rejected the religious doctrine of the divinity of the Japanese Emperor. It actually used armed force to make the Emperor swear off any claims of divinity. Was that bigotry?
