What's your narrative on the war?

There are two types of "terrorist" in this topic--- the "fundamentalist" terrorist, and the "terrorist". Now, one might claim that they are one and the same, but they are not. The "fundamentalist" takes the Quran, or at least the "fundamentalist" version of the Quran and attempts to force those views upon the world as a whole. The "terrorist" is simply making his stance clear and evident. To fundamentalists, Western Culture is the infidel, the ones of whom the Quran says must die. Their scantly clad women, their gays, and their transgressions against god for eating forbidden foods and not keeping holy his day needs to be punished.. To the terrost, Western Culture is hypocritical, speaking promises and acting lies. Their condemnation of the terrorists actions and justification of the retaliation is their infidel.
