I'd like to take a moment to explain why leftists seem so enamoured with radical Islamic jihad and bend over backwards, or just plain bend over to help it bring down western civilization.
The leftist believes that an all powerful state is better at running your own life than you are.
The radical jihadi promises a "perfect" all powerful state that will run every aspect of your life.
The leftist believes that we should all be "united" behind one leader.
The radical jihadi believes that we should all be "united" under one leader, preferably an Imam.
The leftist claims to be the "voice of the common populace."
The radical jihadi claims to be the "voice of the common populace."
The leftist holds western civilization and its values in contempt.
The radical jihadi hates western civilization.
The leftist believes that he is justified in lying, cheating, and bullying people into accepting his positions because he thinks it's for "the good of the people."
The jihadi believes that he is justified in lying, cheating, and terrorizing people into accepting his positions because he thinks it's for "the good of the people."
I think that covers a lot of it.
Any suggestions of your own to add to this list?
Keep watching the skies, because we're watching you.

All the above, plus one other factor.
All leftists believe that, come the revolution, their particular faction will be in charge. Thus they support any leftist movement, no matter how superficially different. The rude awakening usually happens in the cattle car on the way to the gulag, if at all.

Insofar as this pertains to jihadis, we can see this fact in none other than Iran. If they don't think they'll be arrested/executed for saying so, the original participants of the overthrow of the shah back in the 70s will freely admit that the theocracy of today's Iran is not what they had in mind. Ooooooooops.
