precis:
The problems between the United States and the Muslim world have nothing to do with American values or American business. These problems are too often over-simplified, but, if we analyze and sort them, we find that they fall into several identifiable categories: political, economic/socioeconomic, identity, theological/belief, and perception. Breaking up larger problems into constituent and identifiable parts helps us carefully to consider each problem component and craft initiatives in each of these arenas or spaces.
