Bin Laden wasn't nationalist only because he couldn't take over a government to become nationalist about.

Most of the Arab world is quite fascist.

Islam apparently makes running government by Islamic law part of the religion.

In Saudi Arabia, the nation with the two holiest of Islamic sites, government appointed mullahs call for the total annihilation of all Jews and western "crusaders". The majority believe that bombers are martyrs. Their opinion can't really be called extremist; there, it's mainstream.

As far as Marx goes, tens of millions of people were killed by governments called "Marxist". One Marxist apology is that he was misunderstood and people just didn't get the implementation right somehow. How many tens of millions will die in Marxism Ver. 2?

When I was a toddler, I took a fork and stuck it in an electrical socket. I didn't need to be told not to try it with a spoon instead. It wasn't the implementation that shocked the living shit out of me, ya follow?
