To understand the Muslim world in the region you have to understand the effects of colonialism and western foreign policy of the past century in particular. Muslims are tired of seeing their families bombed to smithereens, tired of Israeli oppression in Palestine (which is propped up by the U.S), even when Afghanistan was taken back by the people after the Russians were ejected, no western power would recognise it as a state (they made no threats to the west) instead using 911 as an excuse to go in and install their puppets, even going into Iraq based on lies, again killing many civilians, torture in Baghram, Guantanamo etc etc I cud go on. Now Muslims feel a strong a sense of 'global family' they are brothers and sisters to each other... With all thats gone on IS was inevitable, and yes the true place is seen by them as the next life, this is just a quick passage to it where ur actions will be judged, if the right thing to do is to take on the oppressors, then they will do it, even if it means death, in fact in their view to die in the cause is much better than passing away old and grey. They do not fear death as long as it is for the right reasons, and in the right circumstances may welcome it. Victory or martyrdom is their slogan....

Lol take it ez, was just trying to paint a picture of how they see it. Though ur viewpoint seems to be very much in approval of the indiscriminate killing and oppression that lead to this situation... Anyway it was 'mission accomplished' last time the US went into Iraq with a coalition I'm sure it will be the same this time

Nuking the most concentrated and evident nodules will do nothing to stop the infection that is already spread, and in some places simply less symptomatic yet.
The ones that are, are the equivalent of some backwoods hillbilly nut job.

Am I understanding you right?
So with out spirituality everything would be peaches and cream right?
Why not just clone yourself exponentially until you have a world
where everyone thinks, believes, talks, walks and acts like you because
everyone is you? Wouldn't that be cool?
