Islamic extremism is deeply connected to separatism. That's what the "Islamic State" is all about.
You can surely be critical of others, your own government does comparably worse to the same minority without even letting ordinary people know. That is hypocrisy.

- 0xcde4c3db 9y agoSeparatism implies that something else exists to be separate from. ISIL has declared that all other states are illegitimate and are to be replaced by a "worldwide caliphate".
- dionian 9y ago"Islamic extremism" is a nebulous category that can be ascribed to ANY socio-political unrest of peoples who happen to live in a predominantly muslim area. What do they call extremism in other areas with deep socioeconomic problems? Non-islamic extremism?

Well, when members of another ideology also start stabbing people in our streets and running down trucks into the middle of gatherings in order to kill as much civilians as possible, and when they start exploding themselves amongst our children or putting bombs in our metro stations, I'm absolutely sure we will find a name for them. So far, thankfully, we really didn't had the need for that.
