  • I did definitely misunderstand what the intention of a Fatwa and the Jihad meant from the classic reason of being an American who has never been pushed to read beyond what I have seen in media and such.

    So, in that my original interpretation is definitely wrong, however I do still stand by my original point that it would likely have gone a long way to take the moral high ground by specifically stating that civilians are not valid targets.

    I know that what the government of Israel has done to Gaza is literally genocidal ethnic cleansing, please don’t misunderstand what I’m saying as Israeli apologeia, I simply believe violence should be avoided if possible, in this circumstance it doesn’t seem possible with bad actors refusing to negotiate in any sort of good faith and the clear intent on display. (By Israel and the US again to clarify)

    Idk, Muslim extremism has prevailed in the media in my lifetime with many such examples specifically perpetrated on otherwise innocent people. Having said that, I am aware that white nationalist/Christian extremism is alive and well in America and is frequently the cause of our mass shooting events and the cause of a lot of death across the world so… 🤷‍♂️
