Now, I dont think that ISIS, ISIL, Al-Qaeda, I dont think they have any grievance against us other than the fact that we exist. I, again, need to emphasize my view that what were dealing with here is a raw ideology that is disguised as a religion, rather brilliantly and on purpose, by the way. You call it a religion, and it automatically takes on unassailable characteristics. But it is an ideology. They dont have any grievance against us cause of our civil rights record. They dont have any grievance against us for this or that. Their grievance, if you call it that, is actually their claim that we have no right to exist unless we recognize their religion. It is their ideology, not their grievances, its their ideology that tells them to make war on nonbelievers, or non-Muslims. And that, in turn, requires this jihad against Western civilization, not just the US, but the civilized world. Theres no policy change we could make that would calm these people down. And thats what I mean by theyre not actually grievance related. ... The only grievance that militant Islam has about us is that we exist and that we are nonbelievers. And thats it. But boy, you dont say that. No. Thats not smart power. Thats not empathy. Thats not understanding their perspective and point of view. Thats needless name-calling. Thats just personal and uncalled for. So were hamstrung. -- Rush Limbaugh
