If I remember correctly from reading the book, they do argue that Islamic,
Christian and other fundamentalisms are part of the post-modern episteme.
This idea may well have been around before. I think I may have seen
something like that in something written by Guattari, too.

So I guess the real reactionaries are the Bushes trying to take America back
to its modernist core.
