  1. “What Merari’s research shows is “a large pool of psychologically healthy, basically altruistic suicide attackers”.”

    Given the psychological and physical torture inflicted by Islam on ALL Muslims, this conclusion is impossible to support.

    On the societal level, the instant ummah-wide death threat leveled on apostates and the high incidence of a wide variety of physical and sexual abuse perpetrated on Muslim children effectively ensures that Muslim adults grow into extremely troubled adults.

    On the individual level, the many Muslim men who support and/or consummate either life-long or temporary polygamous “marriages” that are forced onto their very young clitorized girls – often their first cousins – are merely evil pedophiles – just like their evil pedophile role model named Mohammed.

  2. “…effectively ensures that Muslim adults grow into extremely troubled adults.”

    Oops! I meant to say:

    “…effectively ensures that Muslim children grow into extremely troubled adults.”
