AMBIVALENCE TO MODERNITY

Long words to describe the inner conflict of Muslims and Arabs (not always the same things) which leads to riots and seemingly insane behavior.

As westerners, our first thought is WTF? What is wrong with these people?

Then we try to explain it away. The other day I read that the mobs in Libya and elsewhere are really just juvenile delinquents looking for trouble. Well, maybe. But try this well written and informative article.

Incidentally, it does not blame the west and is very reflective on the problem of half modern young people in the arab and muslim worlds.

Why is the Arab World So Easily Offended?"
