"The course instructed captains, commanders, lieutenant colonels and colonels from across all four armed services that “Islam had already declared war on the West...”
I wonder if it would be ok if the teaching materials suggest that
radical Islam is at war with the West? That nuance might be deemed reasonable and even palatable - based on a reasonable reading of page 20, section 3.2, of the WH report cited below. Unfortunately, what might be an acceptable "nuanced path" to a whole-of-governement approach to this problem, remains largely in the hands of this WH's bureaucrats - MOO, not a resounding confidence builder given this WH's past performance and what might be at stake.

MOO, the review of the quality/background of the instructors (as well as materials) might prove helpful - as we have seen - some real "winners" have been hired by the feds (and others) in the past.
