A Poor Man's Amanpour

Christiane Amanpour's six-hour three-part special on fundamentalist Jews, Muslims and Christians was apparently a ratings success.

I didn't watch it, so I can't comment. However, I talked to a (conservative) friend who said he didn't think there was much there. I asked him if it didn't help him see what makes religious people--particularly extremists--tick. He said no, but it did teach him why liberals are so willing to make excuses for Islamic terrorists.
