I'd rather call a spade a spade. It's about introducing another religion into a culture that has just about resolved the problems of another.
I question this part a bit. As an analogy, there was a study in Texas about capital punishment. It found that when legally killing people [death penalty] is higher, lynching goes down considerably and when legally killing people is lower, lynching people goes way up. Perhaps the analogy is to war and imperialism. When we bring the level of legal killings [war and "national emergencies"] down against other countries, maybe lynchings, mercenaries, and vigilante "justice" against non-Americans or non-Christians at home will increase considerably. The point is that maybe they're under control here because their efforts are being directed elsewhere and if that goes away, suddenly, domestically we are way worse off.
