Idiotic question:
since when did IslamISM become the term? One would never say, "Hi, I'm a Christianist!", it's simply improper syntax... and so is "islamism".
Is there now a fundamental difference between Islam and "Islamism", or something? I'd never really understood why this new term emerged.
Loop? What loop? I don't see any loop.... |

| I only recently heard "Islamist," and the only thing I can think is that it applies to the radical Muslim terrorists and militants. |

Never heard of Islamism either... sounds like a joke involving Muhammed, peace be upon him.  _________________ bi-chromaticism is the extraordinary belief that there exists only two options
each polar opposite to each other
where one is completely superior to the other. |

...Terrorists are not a race of people. We also call them "criminals." We have them here. In America. When you say that we're battling terrorists elsewhere, what we're really doing is battling the terrorists-- of that particular country. Are you saying that America is responsible for policing the entire world? Not to sound callous, but i'd rather die for my own home. Not someone elses. |
