Jonathan Sacerdoti on the need to study violent Islamism honestly.

The slogan “This has nothing to do with Islam” is not a realistic starting point.

And our Western world urgently needs to find an answer.

A society that refuses to rank its values ends up unable to protect any of them. Islamism exposes this weakness with particular efficiency because it operates as an absolutist system confronting a relativist one.
