Most people listening to Palestinians talk of the right of return and from the river to the sea have it exactly backwards, taking them seriously, but not literally. We need to take them literally when they claim all of Palestine "from the river to the sea" is theirs. Jihadis of all religions don't have a problem curable with empathy. This therapizes an ideological problem: minds possessed by a narcissistic fantasy that anchors communal identity. American southerners' Lost Cause and Japan's Bushido fantasy are similar. Definitive catastrophic defeat as in 1865 and 1945 is usually the only cure. Even that is sometimes not enough, as Stone Mountain, Georgia, confederate statue rallies and Yasukuni show.
