i said it 10 X these are high tech gang bangers- nothing more -- they picked a reason which is no reason- to have some stupid purpose. Many have never read the Koran- its just a pseudo invented doctrine- to convince people who are mostly threatened to join... it is the same thing as when any other revolution gets started--young people think it is all that, and a bag of chips- leave college or good homes to go get raped and die. They have said it, over and over-- they are trying to END earth-- that is the GOAL- matters who dies-- they all must die

They are the only ones who can. And the solution is to not 'lasso the nutjobs', it's to start with the youth, who as of now, are being indoctrinated into their death cult. If the moderates could simply not instill hatred in the children, but teach them civility, in three or four generations things might start to change.
Easier said than done, unfortunately. Look what happened to that terrorist's mother.

Good parenting goes a long way, but it isn't a guarantee against negative environmental factors. Particularly in a part of the world where most young people are unemployed, where the poor are left to fend for themselves (not much social safety net), where they're surrounded by war and political stability from the time they're born, commonly losing their friends and family to violence, etc.

Not only is that a hell of a lot of constant trauma, which is going to severely impact someone psychologically, they become desperate, and people often turn their entire lives to religion -- whichever one happens to be conveniently in their face promising eternal respite.

When you combine the constant extreme trauma with desperation and consider how religion can be used to lure people to do insane things because religion, with its inherent premise of blind faith replacing logic, is easily used as a tool for political/financial power -- you see how factors such as these can tend to drown out kindly parents urging their youngins to be nice to people.

Not saying this is excusable, AT ALL. Terrorists, regardless of their life issues, need to be stamped out. I'm just saying, it's not likely completely the parents fault.

This is nothing new and proof that organizations like ISIS is regressive and will keep these countries in the dark ages. From Wikipedia:

Extremism within Islam goes back to the 7th century to the Kharijites. From their essentially political position, they developed extreme doctrines that set them apart from both mainstream Sunni and Shiʿa Muslims. The Kharijites were particularly noted for adopting a radical approach to Takfir, whereby they declared other Muslims to be unbelievers and therefore deemed them worthy of death.[10][11][12]

Their choice was to join Assad's army, which might present more problems than we can see, beside the fact that Assad's army was also killing their relatives.

[quote=ohhwanderlust;42563366]They target Muslims equally if not worse than Christians. Reason being, they aren't pro-Islam. They're pro-Wahhabi, a deranged cult that passes itself off as Islam.

/QUOTE]

I'd point out, too, that Wahhabism stems from and is supported by Saudi Arabia, which finances the widespread teaching of Wahhabist doctrine in the West, including the US.

if he executes his own mother he won't have any problem in executing anyone else including us.

The good ones are not getting financial help from a government. The Atlantic had good articles about how many Muslims in South Asia condemned daesh.

Very sad he would kill his mother who was trying to protect him.

I think religion has done far more harm than good in this world altogether . Just throughout history . Not any one particular incident but many . SOO many people killed over the centuries in the name of religion .
