Does Islamic fundamentalism pose a threat to American society?

Article Abstract:

The hostility between Islamic fundamentalism and American interests can be seen as either an incidental and exceptional deviation from the more cordial norm or as a manifestation of an intractable enmity. The first opinion stresses the diversity and complexity of Islam and sees Muslims as spiritual non-violent people. The latter identifies Islamic fundamentalism as a movement of zealots determined to violently attack the blasphemy of Western life.
