One of the things I loved about the lasted Batman was that Batman was good and bad. That was the theme of the movie, that everyone is good and bad. Usually, each person thinks they are good, and some "other" is bad.
The US sees themselves as fighting on the good side with God, and the Taliban see the US as the Devil, and are fighting on the good side with Allah.
The US has done some terrible things (ie., bombing a site making weapons, that turned out to be an aspirin factory..."Ameeeerica, (&#(&#(**&$ yeah! Coming to save the m(*&(*&(*&&&^Tg day!")
In Batman, there were two ships, one with inmates from a prison, the other with civilians, "Innocent" people. They needed to make a decision when presented with a dilemna, and one watches as those who are good choose to make selfish choices, and those who are "bad guys" make honorable, brave choices.
It is simplistic to think someone evil, and equally unreal and simplistic to think someone "good." Rather, people choose to do good or bad actions, and that changes who they are.
In Jesus Camp, the leader was using fear to motivate the children in a cult-like fashion, claiming that Muslims were the enemy, the world was the enemy, the government was the enemy against God for allowing abortion. They used their children (not of an age of consent) to forward their point, which is simple manipulation of the children and government. Most often, she was saying things like, "This means war," telling the kids to lay hand on a image of the President that bordered on idolatry, etc.
It was an image not of love and mercy, but of conquering, warring, dominance, etc.
Were a Muslim to do the same, she would have a problem with it, but can allow the same things with herself, because she does them in the name of God.
