In seven years I have not seen any evidence, whether in public statements or actual policy, that the government considers Islam evil and that such an attitude drives our strategy (however poor it is in other respects). They may be bad at "outreach" but the government in its clumsy way has been trying to show that the extremists are trying to hijack Islam and that we side with those moderates who want to live with the rest of the world in peace. For all the Bush Administration's sins, holding Islam at large as an enemy hasn't been one of them.
