You're right...1/3 of them aren't into Jihad.
It's the other 2/3 we're concerned about.
if there were a half a billion Jihadists out there, we'd be in real trouble.
there aren't though. Except in your racist fever dreams.
They are trying to distract from the fact Islam as it stands now is an evil ideology that is incapable of coexistence with other faiths and Western Democracy and values.
Well, maybe if we stopped trying to co-exist with them by stealing their land and bombing their children, we wouldn't have a problem.
When you look into the background of so called terrorists, they are all simply very religious, devout Muslims who felt a calling to act and carry out what their faith is asking them to do. This is the 10,000 pound elephant in the room that our leaders are failing to address.
well, let's look at that. Prior to the 1980's, most of the "Terrorist" groups were actually pretty secular. The regimes we didn't like such as Nassir, Assad, Saddam (some weeks) etc. were pro-Soviet and Nationalist.
Then some assholes decided that we needed to appeal to the religious nuts because those dirty commies might teach girls how to read!
So now we have a who new batch who hate us for religious reasons on top of all the dumb shit they were already mad at us about.
Brilliant.
