When i first moved to states a couple of years after 9/11 and at the height of the "War on terror" , i was impressed how much US had learnt from a single terror attack compared to India which had become accustomed to Islamic violence the scale of genocide for more than a thousand years. In bookstores and libraries across US, there were aisles full of literature that were written post 9/11 trying to understand islamic terrorism, the reasons, the various organizations, their history etc. There was a lot of scholarly work in the government agencies, media and in books trying to get to the root cause jihadism where as we in India had our heads firmly buried in sand.
Fast forward 20 yrs, US has forgotten it all. Rampant, unchecked immigration, partisan politics where both sides are more interested in rubbing each others face in the dirt than formulate common sense policies, the rise of political islam in the US on the back of newly weaponized left, everything indicates US currently is where Europe was at the end of the 20th century. In couple of decades, you will see loud azaans, public namaaz, riots and pro-islamic candidates become all too common in the US too. Who would have thought that a mere 22 yrs after 9/11 one will see more than ten thousand muslims block downtown DC to offer namaaz in front of the Lincoln Monument!
