- lupusreal 2y agoLet me guess, the ones you term to be "Islamists" are those who fight America or Israel. Most of the Afghan fighters who took shots at American soldiers weren't motivated by some sort of boogieman religious extremism. They were simply shooting at armed foreigners who invaded their country. They weren't terrorists by any reasonable definition of the but were called so anyway because they happened to be Muslim and dared to defy America.
- gryzzly 2y agoI term Islamists the ones who claim themselves to be Islamists – Islamist Republic of Iran, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, ISIS, Hamas. It shows you have no idea what are you talking about.
- gryzzly 2y agoand supporting the narrative pushed by the Islamists is harming the Muslims, resulting in Islamophobia. The fact you are mixing the two terms to simply "mark these who attack America" is actually really bad for the normal people affiliated with Islam. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Islamism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Islamism

- golergka 2y agoYeah, I probably should not have written the first sentence about lies, sorry about it. It was hard to react in a civil way when I saw something that is so far removed from reality, but I should not have broken the guidelines.
