Can we please drop this pretense ? One only has to look at the terrorists to know for sure that provoking them is not the issue, neither is poverty, or racism. I&#x27;m also seriously wondering what the Kurds ever did to provoke them ? The Yezidi ? The Shi&#x27;a ? The Iranians ? Iraqi Christians ? Alawites ? Druze ? The Lebanese ? Even if I can sort-of understand that Israel, Turkey and Jordan did do a few attacks, it did not justify the response at all.<p>I realize the problem : if you follow a normal way of thinking you&#x27;ll invariable end up with that the problems are located in the ideology, and of course that indirectly attacks a lot of people. That however is not a valid line of reasoning, as it<p>Sorry I am posting this because Dyab Abou Jahjah posted an article in the newspaper. He&#x27;s a local muslim, a mouthpiece for muslims and he posted an article that stands out massively : it does NOT condemn the attack, but the &quot;western response&quot; to it [1], describing it as a consequence of the conflict &quot;the west created&quot;.<p>Half of all muslims I know on facebook are reposting that. I just want to say, if that&#x27;s the attitude of even 10% of muslims, civil war is inevitable. And it sure looks like it&#x27;s more like 50%.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.standaard.be&#x2F;cnt&#x2F;dmf20151114_01970768" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.standaard.be&#x2F;cnt&#x2F;dmf20151114_01970768</a>
