Let me elaborate in the time I have: The people who Western Civilization is against right now, the Muslim Fundmentalist, are interested in understanding us to the point where they can come about unseen and destroy us. etc.

How do you know this? Do you speak Arabic? Studied the Koran and the Sharia extensively? Versed in the history of British and Ottoman colonialism? The pan-Arabist movement of the 20th century? The history of Islamist terrorism? The history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Are you well-read on the various ethnic relations within "the Muslim world"? Have you talked to many Muslims? Do you know any?
Now, "Western culture". What is it? Is it unified? Would you say that it is diverse? Look at the diversity within I-Mockery. Now, how can you make the generalizations you are making about a meta-culture that you know next to nothing about, when our own culture is not at all unified?
I rest my case.
