Yes, 8 million Jews in a sea of 1 billion Muslims is why Muslims kill not only themselves but also wage jihad on the west.

How does your kind type this stuff with a straight face?

They make for a good excuse for corrupt regimes that are a variety of prince-doms and dictatorships to distract their population from their internal problems.

I guess Israel is why there is a civil war in Syria?

Lastly, the Hebdo attack never mention Israel or Palestine.

Perhaps O's bud Jimmy is just a good old-fashioned anti-Semite.

The terrorists made it really easy to figure out their motive by yelling it in the middle of the attack, captured on phone video: they said they were "avenging the prophet Mohammed." Nothing about Israel or Palestine. Only mention of Al Qaeda in Yemen. How much more clear did they need to make it for folks like Jimmy?

Western imperialism/support for Israel's slaughter of Arabs is the reason why anti-western sentiment is huge in that part of the world.

I don't recall the Middle East hating us before any of that. And I don't see Islam as the problem either - the nationalist Middle East of the 50s and 60s hated us, the leftist Middle East of the 70s and 80s hated us, both eras secular. We ruined their region.

lMAO

If all the jihadis are so concerned about Arabs in Israel tell me why haven't any of them offered to absorb them into their 100 biions of square feet??

Here's a fun fact for you, Jihadis don't give 2 ****s about "Palestinians", they are just a pawn used in their twisted logic for hating the west.
