Ken, allow for the power of ideology. And in general it's strategically important not to explain the enemy in terms of intelligence. I always told my freshman comp students, if the idea you are attacking seems incredibly stupid and easy to demolish, consider seriously that you don't understand it. In the present case, it is not so much understanding the ideas themselves (objectively they are indeed pretty stupid) but of the whole social framework in which these people think.
