Paul, it's more about culture than it is about race or religion, Kaga just doesn't frame it that way. And a culture is a perfectly valid thing to dislike, because it's an extremely powerful system of guidance for behavior and it's actually possible to identify.
Even 'moderate' muslims are still extremely religious, with cultural idiosyncrasies that are going to be outright offensive to your typical 'neckbearded, fedora-donning atheist' like myself. Every nation gets the government it deserves. Show me a majority-Islamic society that I can respect, and I'll change my mind.
