    Ironically, it has more to do with the west invading places where Muslims live.

    I'm sure that's part of the recruitment propaganda, but the reality is that it's about power, and what some are willing to do in order to get it. That, coupled with a large number of young people with few prospects, means it's easy to employ these tactics for those who are willing.

    How long must Obama suck muslim cock before the fuckwads back off? I get that his world apology tour could be viewed as an empty gesture. And sure he's a remote-control assassin of numerous islamic terrorist fuckwads via drones.

    But since no broad-reaching solution can apparently be achieved without America leading the way, and Obama refuses to lead (except from "behind"), radical muslim murdering sucm should by now be praising Obama for the limp-dick west laying down and taking the terrorist dick up the Belgian ass while Obama lubes it up. Shouldn't they?

    So, you think a GWB approach of 'Invade muslim countries, and kill them by the tens of thousands' is likely to stabilise the middle east and end islamic terrorism?
    Or is that what creates it?

    Ah, yes, I see the problem you raised with my choice of mixed metaphor.

    How after all can Obama be sucking muslim cock if he had just lubed it up for the entry into Euroland's unfortunate posterior? I think that's a timing issue.

    Anyway, as long he as doesn't say Voldemort's name we should be safe here in the US - except of course for the occasional 'San Bernardino.'

    No, I think it was the ridiculous "Obama is a Muslim lover" narrative right next to a recognition of his drone campaigns, which have killed more Muslims that his predecessor's drone strikes, that I found rather amusing. Just in the past couple of days a US drone strike killed 200 in Yemen, attacking what the US says was an Al Qaeda camp. Yeah, he's working hard on that terrorist popularity vote. :lol:

    So many of you Americans have gotten so wrapped up in your partisanship that you neither bother to even find out what is actually happening out there or bother to see if the facts actually stack up. No wonder your politics is in the worst mess it's ever been.

    Oh, so you're hung up on the difference between simile and metaphor? I get that. You is a smart.

    Depends. If, like most people like Tuttle, one considered Islamists and Muslims to be one and the same then it followers that on his standard, the US has killed hundreds of thousands more Muslims than Muslims kill have westerners, from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to years of drone strikes. So the terrorist attacks are the real pinpricks, from a reverse point of view. See, that's the moronic thing about such narratives. They don't stand up to any common sense at all....and the "all Muslims are terrorists" narrative ironically plays into the recruiting narrative of the likes of IS and Al -Qaeda that any attack on any part of the Islamic world by the US is an attack on Muslims in general.

    When Obama started, Yemen has a minor problem with some Al Qaeda terrorists hiding in the hills. Since then it collapsed into all-out civil war, Al Qaeda has exploded into massive recruitment, the government evacuated along with US forces, and US citizens were left thumbing rides on foreign ships because Obama was afraid of sending anyone in to get them out. He cited Yemen as his model for success in Syria.

    Meanwhile, who is busy backing the Sunnis in Yemen? Your good ally Suadi Arabia...and that's not a partisan problem gtardo, suckling up to SA has been American foreign policy under every administration to date. Guess who are fighting alongside the Sunnis against the Houthis? None other than Islamic State.

    Twats like you literally have no clue what is happening out there. You're just mindless sheep who get fed your soundbites from your politically convenient newsmedia or internet blogs. :lol:

    Okay, now I get it. A simile within a simile, that's what you're on about.

    [Btw, slick, you should really stick to slap fights with your asshole buddy Dayton; not only don't I fit neatly into one of your 'types', you apparently have somehow eluded detection of my not-so-subtle point. Lemme be explicit: Obama's "lead from behind" diplomacy designed to placate euroweenies and/or cool the ire of Islamic fundamentalism has achieved no improvement on either and has only served to place us in position for ass-ramming, which most of the US doesn't really want.]

    Oh, I think your "not so subtle point" was rather obvious. I think your erudition isn't quite what you think it is. ;)

    What makes you think Islamists are primarily motivated by the actions of the U.S. and other western nations?

    What makes you think I have ever claimed as much?

    They aren't primarily motivated by it. They most certainly are partially motivated by it. Or are you totally oblivious to the rhetoric that extremist recruiters use to convince young adult to join them, or to their own anti-western statements? A great deal of that is based on using westerner policy as a justification for terrorism.

    Again, before Obama's brilliant Middle Eastern strategies, Yemen was a peaceful country with some Al Qaeda holdouts hiding in the hills. If he had four more years, Jordan would probably be in a civil war, too.

    From what I've observed, it isn't unknown for murderers to also be liars.

    It's also not unknown for them not to be liars. Point being, your question is stupid, because there are very obvious grounds for thinking that they're motivated by the actions of the US and other western nations.

    Are you fucking stupid or what? You think it's dumb to suggest that western actions in the Middle East have contributed? Are you living under a fucking rock? What happened to the "well read" Dayton Kitchens? It's absolutely explict in so much of what IS says and, before them, Al Qaeda and also in the countless internet chatter among Islamic extremists.

    You're an astonishingly ill educated buffoon. But then this is why you're a welfare bum failure instead of a "professional educator"....

    So they are lying that the US invaded Iraq, killed a hundred thousand plus Muslims based on a claim of a weapons of mass destruction, which never existed?

    You utter fool. You think that none of these actions we take have a fall out. Go back to your fucking isolated chicken coup. The level of your idiocy and education is below what I would expect from one of your former stupid (before you became an unemployed joke).

    Except we didn't kill a hundred thousand Iraqis. We didn't kill very many at all even in the major battles. In the second battle of Fallujah, for example, when we pounded the hell out of them in house-to-house fighting, we killed less than 1,500 Iraqis while destroying most of the city (the civilians had been evacuated). In the first battle of Falljuah we only killed about 200.

    If you go through the Iraq Body Count database day by day, the vast majority of deaths in Iraq were from insurgents and terrorists attacking Iraqis and US forces. They especially like to attack police stations and recruitment lines. The deaths attributed to the US and coalition forces are 7,500 during the invasion and 6,800 from 2004 through 2011.
