The sorry fact that many people in this world, Western or European, display the competence and aptitude of a pile of sod is not really relevant here. The whole list boiled down to a pretty simple conclusion, that our existence is being perceived as an attack, and there are people in power who refuse to be convinced otherwise. Their culture is being consumed and amalgamated in the same process that all civilizations undergo once they have long past their zenith.

If they choose to cast their eyes to the ground in bitterness when modern culture and technology crack open the dry husk of nearly 1500 years of habitude, then so be it. Survival means the inclusion of new ideas and realities. I refuse to rationalize the damage done by the final malignant thrashings of a minority so unwilling to compromise, that they would rather doom their own then allow them to mingle with outsiders.
