So, if you have some connection to Edward Snowden (not that I know what this guy&#x27;s would be), it doesn&#x27;t matter how vile the causes are that you go to bat for?<p>On suicide terrorism and Naziism, read up on the Nazi influences on the Middle East during and after the War. The Ba&#x27;ath Party is explicitly National Socialist; Sayyed Qutb and the Muslim Brotherhood were influenced by them, as are organizations descended from them. Anti-Semitism in the Middle East is largely a Nazi import -- this is the same Middle East that the Jews fondly remember as a center of forbearance prior to the modern age. (Thus all those Orientalizing synagogues.)<p>Of course, suicide bombings and suicide terrorism are bad because they&#x27;re bad, not because they&#x27;re Nazi-associated. (Conservation, sustainable forestry, and high minimum wages were also Nazi causes, after all.) But there&#x27;s a Nazi element in modern Islamic terror, which makes it particularly unsettling when a Westerner who&#x27;s apparently on the far left defends supporters of Islamic terror and supporters of a new Holocaust more or less in the same breath.
