Well this kind of sucks:

Hannah Arendt very famously wrote about the Nazi banality of evil, where everyday practices and thoughtlessness add up to the singular horror of the Holocaust. We've got some problems with that thesis, but one way or another that's certainly not what we're increasingly dealing with in the Muslim world. This is religious insanity being used as a positive justification for everyday atrocities, which end up in spectacular acts of terrorism.

And it's spreading.
