If America is no longer seen as the universal bad guy - the mother of all rogue states - al Queda will have no legitimate reason to attack us.

At what point did Bush invoke these crusades? Please show me something before 9-11.
Obama will not be able to kill them with kindness either. That is head in the sand- wishful thinking. It does not coincide with their desire for radical Islam to kill every non-Islamic ideal, and every Jew, Christian, etc... Their hate for us runs too deep to pretend that Obama almighty can reverse their views of us.
We would be fools to sleep with both eyes closed ever again.
