I think you will find that it is the very leftists whom you despise, who are at the forefront of the fighting against the very same Islamo-fascists, wreaking havoc in the Middle East who are incidentally backed by various right wing governments.
It's ironic and absolutely true. The cultural left with the help of multinational corporations who put women in the workplace if they're qualified have wreaked far more havoc on the religious right in the middle east than any social conservative. That's what's happened in places like Dubai, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain. The locals have very reluctantly accepted western women in the workplace by the Western multinationals who operate there. They've even set up safe zones where westerners can do the same stuff we do here, get drunk, pickup chicks, etc.
In reality social conservatives in the West, and islamists across the globe are both fighting against what they perceive as degeneracy, against cultural change, against changes to ethno and religious cultural centrism, and a slew of other social isms.
In fact social liberals have been chipping away at middle eastern and African ethnocentric culture for a long time and if you read outside the echo chamber of conservative blogs you'll notice this.
I agree with most of your commentary DjembaDjemba
My 2 cents worth, I reckon the glogalisation formers ie Bankers, Multinational Corporations encourage this sort of action (Terrorist Extremism) and reaction (Nationalism)
The more I think about it, I feel we're being played like a fiddle!
Jumping up and down in acrimony over the "common enemy" gives those who feel threatened by outsiders (Nationalists),…(plus not interested in the Kardashians), a vent, and ditto for the extremists, the justification needed to follow their moral crusade and blow things up
It appears that bigger political games are afoot and this is the current distraction for the righteous minded to denounce
The new world order will see one governing body with the elite already chosen, and we the unwashed, their servants.
And still the Kardashians will entertain us with their narcissistic fatuousness
