Shouldn't 'terrorism' be replaced with 'Islamism' ?

Isn't the point that we despise someone for worshipping a certain way but worship the dollar and see nothing wrong with it?


Bit OT I'm afraid, but have just spent nearly two hours watching President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad giving a live news conference - what a showman :-) Couldn't help enjoying his performance! He spent most of it reminding the world how ancient Persian civilization and culture is, and their gifts to the world in the fields of mathematics, art etc. Then berating the West on their 100 year-plus interference in the area, before pardoning and then releasing the fifteen sailors with immediate effect (and asking Blair not to punish them for straying into Iranian waters :-) Classic showmanship but there were glimpses, too, of how different our two cultures are. Must say he gave me much food for thought.
