Not Darwin, sociobiology related to Darwin. The terrorists want to improve the chances that their gene pool will survive and propagate and their way of life will supercede all others It's what we all want according to sociobiology.
This is apples to oranges - false comparison. The terrorists aren't trying to enforce sociobiology. They aren't committing atrocities in the name of sociobiology. They are trying to enforce their values and belief systems. Which is what Christians, Jews and most other proponents of religious belief systems have done at some point in history. In a way that involves much less bloodshed, it's what fundamentalist Biblical literalists want when they insist that we teaching the falsehoods of creationism as science in our schools, instead of empirically based findings.
