i just explained why it still would happen. >>>But Muslims aren't going away.<<< Just have to join sides with the non-terrorists ones. It's actually pretty simple.

‘Insanity’: Internet stunned as Trump sides with Saudis instead of his own secretary of state in Qatar dispute

Donald Trump on Friday escalated the growing rift with Qatar, calling out the country as a sponsor of terrorism after seven Middle Eastern countries severed ties with Doha.That statement came mere hours after Secretary of State Rex Tillerson urged “there be no further escalation by parties in the region.”

News that Trump appeared to contradict his own secretary of state stunned the Internet on Friday with users expressing disbelief over the president’s words.

Trump is currently slamming Qatar.

Just an hour ago, Tillerson called on Arab countries to ease blockade on Qatar.

Cannot understate the insanity of Tillerson calling for the end of Qatar blockade followed by this statement by Trump right now.

Biggest US Gulf base is in Qatar, 10Ks of US people there.

Still & all if Muslims weren't in the UK this wouldn't be happening.

Even if that was true, you could also accurately say that if there were no Muslims, Buddhists or Atheists in the UK, this wouldn't be happening.

"Still & all if Muslims weren't in the UK this wouldn't be happening."

It was UK's imperial colonialism that busted into, occupied, abused, resource-extracted Muslim countries.

I expect the UK has historically killed many more Muslims than Muslims have killed Brits.

He definitely has a rational solution to the problem imo

yes and he also opposes racial profiling of muslims, unwarranted detention, torture, drone strikes, etc.

his approach to dealing with extremism is the same to dealing with race/ issues. a gradual societal push-back, not military intervention. he has also said that strong nationalism aka the trump approach does more harm than good in fighting extremsim

Donald Trump Thinks He’s Pulled the Plug on Islamic State and Al-Qaida. He’s Wrong.

The international Islamic jihadist network, created nearly four decades ago in Afghanistan by the United States, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, is unraveling in full view of a planetary audience. Donald Trump thinks it’s all his doing—but he’s wrong, of course.

Trump appears to actually believe that the Saudis—the godfathers, along with the U.S., of international jihadism—have renounced their bankrolling of Islamist holy wars.

“So good to see the Saudi Arabia visit with the King and 50 countries already paying off,” tweeted Trump. “They said they would take a hard line on funding. Perhaps this will be the beginning of the end to the horror of terrorism!”

Donald Trump seems honestly giddy, apparently believing he has forced the Saudis to reject jihadist terror and to punish Qatar for its support of ISIS and al-Qaida.

Perhaps he truly does not know that the main actor in the proxy war is not Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, Kuwait, or Qatar –- it is the CIA, the other, and most important, godfather of Islamist jihad.

So, don’t believe for a second that the Saudis are abandoning ISIS and al-Qaida, or are attempting to force Qatar to do the same.

Neither is the CIA, which simply rebrands its jihadists when their names become too notorious.

Does Donald Trump know that the Saudis are blowing smoke in his face?

Does he realize that his own CIA and military have no intention of giving up their jihadists, whom they cannot do without?

Who knows? Does it really matter?

The criminal U.S. war against Syria will unravel from the weight of its own contradictions.

In the end, Washington’s Gulf “partners” necks will be on the chopping block.

Oligarchy, BigOil division, keeps funding, befriending, arming, protecting a terrorist country, for profit.

Saudi Arabia is destabilizing the world



JUST A FEW months ago, the governor of Indonesia’s largest city, Jakarta, seemed headed for easy re-election despite the fact that he is a Christian in a mostly Muslim country. Suddenly everything went violently wrong. Using the pretext of an offhand remark the governor made about the Koran, masses of enraged Muslims took to the streets to denounce him. In short order he lost the election, was arrested, charged with blasphemy, and sentenced to two years in prison.

This episode is especially alarming because Indonesia, the

world’s largest Muslim country, has long been one of its most tolerant. Indonesian Islam, like most belief systems on that vast archipelago, is syncretic, gentle, and open-minded.

The stunning fall of Jakarta’s governor

reflects the opposite: intolerance, sectarian hatred, and contempt for democracy. Fundamentalism is surging in Indonesia. This did not happen naturally.

Saudi Arabia has been working for decades to pull Indonesia away from moderate Islam and toward the austere Wahhabi form that is state religion in Saudi Arabia.

The Saudis’ campaign has been patient, multi-faceted, and lavishly financed.

It mirrors others they have waged in Muslim countries across Asia and Africa.
