You just posted this, quote " Surely you have read something of the aims of religious islamist extremists --- kill infidels, as in non believers and spread their extremist version of Islam. "
But this is what I asked : "When you say they hate the freedoms in the west, and want to destroy it, can you explain why ?"
And you have not explained why. You are basically saying, "google it", or "do your own research."
You then post what looks likes to be a US DHS summary of links to risks, but nothing in that summary covers the proposition in the post I was replying to. This
" REMEMBERthemALL · Yesterday 02:25
These same Islamic terrorists still have the same aim to destroy the West.
Yes they do. They hate the freedom we enjoy. We can speak out. Don't have to bow down to extremist doctrine. They hate that we will not be controlled, as they control so many, in their various areas of operation."
Instead, the list you give has a list of organizations that are separate and have different aims. The only thing they have in common is that they share the same religious base. There is a lot of conflation and lumping together going on here, with a giant leap to a conclusion that is in no way proven.
For example. your cut and paste mentions the Pakistan TTP. But their thing is region specific. Because it is tribal, against the Pakistan Government. Their aims are specific. Yet they are lumped into the " they hate the west" thing, as if they are about to bomb Aberdeen train station, because "they hate western freedoms". But that is simply not the case. The TTP have a specific regional cause. They are not bombing Pakistan yelling " The whole world should be Islamic".
This is why I asked what I did. Why do they hate the west etc, as that poster claimed.
We really should have learned from the second Iraq war. When Bush lumped Saddam Hussein in with Bin Laden "as hating the west". Because those two people I actually strongly disliked each other. And as other posters have said, Bin Laden was aligned with the religion in Saudi Arabia.
As @MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack posted above :"Unfortunately for them, it looks like Trump might get there first."
That is very true IMO. And we see it when Trump does this conflation and concludes THEY HATE THE WEST, too many people are just parroting that instead of asking him to explain it. Indeed, his response to anyone questioning it is for him to say it is ones PATRIOTIC DUTY to believe it. That all Islam hates the west. Vance is worse, he goes on about the great replacement. But no problem they say. They claim to be able to fix it. Just vote for them. And give them enough votes, and they will sort it so the Non Patriots won't be able to vote.
