I respectfully submit that labeling the Islamic forces Facist is an easy answer (even if true for the most part) and should not be used to justify actions. Our own regime is near facist. It answers to the Corporate masters and not to the will of the people. Our basic freedoms of which you and I both hold so dear are every day curtailed by them and the only justifications they give are also being strong in war as a way to peace. I am not saying that the regimes of the middle east are not more authoritarian than ours but there is the truth taht we support those regimes for our own benefits. Remember we need their resources.. they do not need our culture. You bring up valid points on the nature of power and violence.
