I must agree with you on Africa and the Middle East...
One of the reasons I've never really understood the left's position on dealing with Islamist extremism, frankly, is the historic mistreatment of women as a result of Islamic influence in these two areas.
I actually shudder when I see peace activists and the like protesting side by side with Islamists.
It's like seeing Jews protesting side by side with neo-nazi fascists.
Two more diametrically opposed paradigms can hardly be imagined. Why the American left is making common cause with Islamism is beyond me.
