The youth of these places of the world, albeit not like in North America or Europe and Asia, have access to technology and information. The fear mongering, propoganda and extremism cannot be perpetuated in a society that is getting smarter and smarter every day. Once upon a time this kind of sociological mind control was easy because there was no other side to the coin.

So if I am not allowed to make/enjoy cartoons you seem to detest so much, yet you would argue we all have to play nice because they're never going to change, what exactly is your point?
I believe that the level of hate will remain constant driven by a minority within those communities. We are seeing a growth in homegrown threats fueled by feelings of alienation, anger and the ability for recruiters to tap into those emotions.
