Islamists

Much like the parable of the scorpion and the frog, Islamists will do what Islamists do, expend significant blood, treasure and effort into the one goal that appears to unite the Muslim world: Murdering Jews.

After the Islamists split into two groups, moderate Islamists led by Sheikh Ahmed signed a UN backed peace deal with the TFG and established a larger government in Mogadishu.

Islamists have, at least at times, defined themselves as "Islamiyyoun/Islamists" to differentiate themselves from "Muslimun/Muslims".

Islamists have found it easier than competing non-Islamists trying to fill the void of state failure, by securing external funding, weaponry and fighters -- "many of which have come from abroad and have rallied around a pan-Islamic identity".

Islamists were considered by Western governments bulwarks against—what were thought to be at the time—more dangerous leftist communist nationalist insurgents/opposition, which Islamists were correctly seen as opposing.

According to the United Nations (UN), al-Qaeda-linked Islamists killed approximately 40 civilians.

America, Gulf powers, Pakistan, and the United Kingdom all supported Sunni Islamists against Communist Najibullah in Afghanistan several decades ago – despite Najibullah introducing educational reforms for women along with other positive measures.

Earlier this week, Turkey’s disparate opposition parties, including nationalists, Islamists and conservatives, ended month of uncertainty that had frustrated supporters of the anti-Erdogan bloc and nominated a joint candidate to run against Mr Erdogan.

He did not invite them to the so-called Table of Six uniting a diverse bloc of opposition parties, including nationalist conservatives and Islamists.

In a throat-grabbing exercise of some ferocity against the vast sea of protests against the Israel-Hamas War, Braverman took to running into the hundreds of thousands as an unquestioned “assertion of primacy by certain groups – particular Islamists”.

In Bangladesh, George Soros has joined an evil nexus which conspires to replace a secularist government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina by placing Islamists and jihadists in power.

Mr. Erdogan’s supporters, mostly Islamists, who see him as a strongman who stood up against the country’s secular Kemalist establishment, thronged the streets with Turkey’s national flags to celebrate their President’s lead.

The civilian Minister and the civilian bureaucrats were not only exposing and uprooting the network of companies owned by the Islamists forced out of power in 2019, but also the tentacles of the commercial empires owned by senior Generals.

They could be local Islamists, other anti-Semite groups like neo-Nazis, 'Unabomber' pukes or even a 'lone wolf' from say Libya who is pissed that his Big Boss Man Moammar was overthrown and killed 12 years ago.

This, coupled with proactive co-opting of sections of the Hefazat-e-Islam, has resulted in Hasina blunting the political force of Islamists.

Violence has increased since Mali’s military took power in two coups in 2020 and 2021, kicked out French forces who were fighting the Islamists, teamed up with Russian military contractor Wagner Group, and ordered the U.N. mission to leave.

When I see the masked Nazis on the street corner, the White Supremacists in their hoods, or the keffiyeh-wearing Islamists who hide their face, I see the same thing in all their eyes: loathing not just for others, but loathing for themselves.

Yet the Islamists of this world — both the Sunni and Salafist variants that have some things, if not everything, in common with Iran's Shia revolutionaries — have relied more on extreme violence than their faith in God, to attain their goals.

Accordingly, Christians are burnt alive and hacked to death with machetes by Islamists in the DRC – and other brutal ADF methods of killing innocent Christians.

A part of this considerable, restless population has given birth to the radicals and Islamists that have shown their violence on the streets, and now universities, of Western cities.
