Why?

- - - Updated - - -

:D
A group related to ISIS just kidnapped a French man in Algeria warning he will be killed if French attacks do not stop in Iraq. I really do not understand why France has gone there with USA.



I could not say it better. Muslims have more important concerns other than ISIS at the moment.


Iran has just occupied the fourth Arab capital yesterday...
Now, Beirut, Damascus, Baghdad, and Sanaa are under their control.
Now, do you think ISIS is really a danger that Arabs should care about?
What about the Muslims being beheaded by other Muslims? This argument makes no sense. If it were up to me, I'd just let you all have it yourselves then deal with the last man standing if thats what is needed. We aren't the ones living 1500 years ago, that's ISIS. If you are OK with that then :tup:
Iran, forza Iran. This region is much fun. Even the locals are against each other. No rules, everyone's an enemy.
Does this region remind anyone of Call of Duty or Battlefield where there are 64 players and no teams everyone just trying to rack up kills?

I don't get it. In the US Muslims are free to practice and not targeted to be killed. There, in most of the region, flip it the other way around Christians/Jews are essentially just waiting to be killed (or at least have a target on their head).

Meanwhile ISIS targets fellow Muslims who aren't as extreme as them and no one has the balls to do anything about it.

    If you mean that you prefer USA not to interfere in the region, I assure you more than 90% of the region's population prefer that too. The whole mess is mainly because of US interfering since decades till this day..

    That definition of insanity surely applies here: messing in foreign affairs, screwing them up every time, and now thinking that a new incursion in the name of ISIS will be any different. :pado:

    Yes. Each time they make it in the media as if this incursion will be the one that will make it more peaceful for American civilians. After each war, people find they were robbed again, and that the whole war was another person's game.

    Wouldn't things be smoother if Sunnis and Shiites got along?

    I think the US involvement has its aftermath, but I don't think we are the reason why so much shit is going on there. That's just silly.

    A good question really.
    Sarcasm?

    It seems equivalent to Mormons killing Non-denominationals because they dont believe in Polygamy.


    Would.Never.Happen. And if it did, you wouldn't see other christian sects running around with their tails between their legs.

    @richardEngel: Danger is isis had time to prepare a response to this. Agencies should be on alert

    It's worth noting that of the Arab nations supposedly going to be bombing ISIS - Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, UAE, and Bahrain - ALL of them are confirmed to have funded ISIS.

    "If you can kill a nonbelieving American or European, especially the spiteful and filthy French, or an Australian, or a Canadian ... then rely upon God," he said.

    US are pushing hard to make Turks join their so called coalition against ISIS. It's too bad for them that time is changing and old Turkiye which was a forward hq against USSR is no more. One of the main reasons of Turks not joining the alliance was 49 Turkish hostages in hands of Isis. Since they are freed, US will try it again. Now there are talks about it was cia made isis freed the hostages to convince Turks to jump in.

    Look at the big picture instead of what they want you to see. It's a region wide Sunni rebellion, isis is just one the many groups and their leaders' acts are highly suspicious. All of those beheadings and other violent stuff look like they want world to hate Muslims as you can see here;

    http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/shocking-anti-islam-ad-campaign-okd-mta-article-1.1945174

    They are using it to harm just cause of Palestinians, Egyptians, Syrians, Iraqi and other Muslims who are vicitimized by puppet leaders of theirs. They have created a boogeyman to stop advance of Muslims in their colonies.
    Why would they just obey the orders of a government that is bombing them in order to get more countries to bomb them?

    That's not true and that's why the region won't be recovering in the foreseeable future.

    Truth is this region was a mess. Backwards, divided, and rich in resources. You can't expect someone not to take advantage of it. After 100 years of humiliation and nothing has changed. But yeah, keep blaming the US and other foreign powers, that's working out great for you :tup:
