oh ok, just criminals argument. Failing to recognize the blanket religion that spawns these nut bags faster than rabbits can multiply. The whole Allah Akbar thing at the end is just a technicality, you know, and also the genocides, and rapes, and child marriages, and atrocity's committed against women. Not religious at all, nope just criminal. I suppose the form of execution upon hostages isn't religious either, you know lopping off their #en heads on H.D T.V nah that's just criminals doing what criminals do. Do you see how much mental gymnastics come into play for you to settle on this view? I don't even know what to say. This kind of willful ignorance, cannot be argued against, you stand where you stand, that cant be changed.I disagree with you with every bone in my body and i want you to be aware of that.

Islam is a religion of peace. Just like Judaism (ask a Palestinian) and Christianity (shout out to the crusades, the witch trials, the spanish inquisition..yada, yada, blah, blah, blah.)
Yah, including the title, "Islam and extreme" are associated three times in the first paragraph. Knowing kidnapping is a crime carried by criminals, but we are to believe they aren't lying about their religion, too? Like comparatively, waging unjust war and decapitating whole nations is alright.
Radical extreme Islam Jihad is-ists… wash, rinse, repeat.

Ok, we cannot have a conversation about this topic, this table flipping and gymnastics you are doing is just a defense to protect your belief, which I'm sure you consider to be peaceful and loving.
Assuming they think somewhat rationally, what benefit would they get from lying about being Islamic Extremists? Or is it your belief that they are not extremists at all and this is just a propaganda video and the folks in it are all eating at their homes right now?

Assuming the US government is rational, what benefit would they get from lying about the war on terror? Or is it your belief Islam is evil and all the western propaganda to blame them is really the truth?
Kidnappers who take hostages are obviously not religious folk. Or maybe just hide behind gentle euphemisms like "Extraordinary Rendition" and "Detainees" in the name of Humanity or Democracy?
How is this related to the US government? Nobody in the video is from the US.

How is kidnapping and hostage taking related to Islam? Because they wave flags and say Allah akbar?
So kidnapping and murder, check.
Lying about whoo they really are… check mate.

You are still skipping the same question I have had in 2 posts now….what do they have to gain by claiming Islam if they are not Islamic?
And I answered twice.You believe what kidnappers and murderers say?

You are the one claiming they are lying. Yet you believe they are kidnappers and murderers?
You believe what kidnappers say?

Your problem is the cognitive dissonance stemming from the conditioning that Islam is responsible for such horrendous crimes, because the media tells you that. Their crime is kidnapping, not Islam. Islam doesn't kidnap people, criminals do and pretend they're Islam because thats what stirs people up, giving them more attention than they would otherwise receive. Might even raise the ransom?
Criminals hide behind masks, they commit crimes and lie about it to make you believe what they want you to believe.
I believe that more than I believe anything they say. Really Vasa Croe? How old is this tactic?
