Fourth World War against terrorism by pursuing truth and justice

The Reign of Evil:  A Spiritual Perspective

The American Muslim, Oct 11, 2008 


These ideologies have been the most virulent ones in an age dominated by closed ideologies.  One can argue that Neo-Conservatism is a perversion of every major religion known to humankind since our emergence a few million years ago and that its very attractiveness qualifies it therefore as the most dangerous threat to global civilization.  Whether this is true or not, we must recognize that ideas are power and that countering ideologues and their resort to terrorism and terroristic counter-terrorism cannot be countered by waging a war against evil.
