I forgot to mention, like Islam, Japan has its version of the infidel. The epithet "GAIJIN" is used to describe a foreigner not versed in the ways of Japan, unable to conform, and outside the social system. This is nearly identical to thte infidel, except Japan's sacred writings (elemetary school text books) do not exhort the Japanese to kill the GAIJIN. In the past (you may recall World War II) they were exhorted to kill the Gaijins. In World War II, the Japanese were willing to die to preserve their Empire, and this made the atomic attacks the only viable way to subdue them. With atomic attack not feasable, and the mechanistic way in which new recruits appear on the scene in the radical Islamic world, an altering of the mentality of radical Islam has to occur. Since the ideology is rigid and enforcable by death, the only alternative is to unconsciously redirect the violence to a harmless portland concrete tunnel or other harmless way to give dramatic, Allah approved lethal end to those on the nowhere road to destruction.
