Sure, it would be great if Muslims themselves worked to combat extremism. My main point is that there are external situations that polarize groups of people and contribute to extremism, and it's valuable to understand what they are. Again, the movie "The Battle of Algiers" was extremely interesting and I'd highly recommend it.

I don't need to see a movie on that. I've read quite a bit about the war.
As for raisins, it's not mocking. There is a fundamental change if instead of something big (like virgins, money, whatever) you get raisins. Many years ago, white raisins had worth...today they don't. But then again the reinterpretation would be something controversial in and of itself - like stopping suicide murders and terrorist attacks.
