What inspired al-Qaeda to attack the United States, according to one of the terrorists, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), who helped plan 9/11?
The American psychologist, James E. Mitchell, who crafted the interrogation program that helped stop terrorist attacks and saved countless lives after 9/11, just published a book, Enhanced Interrogation.
In it, KSM is quoted as saying that al-Qaeda expected the United States to respond to 9/11 as it had to the 1983 bombing of the US Marine barracks in Beirut -- the United States "turned tail and ran." In the end, KSM told Mitchell:
"We will win because Americans don't realize... we do not need to defeat you militarily; we only need to fight long enough for you to defeat yourself by quitting. ... Eventually, America will expose her neck for us to slaughter."
That is exactly why Islamists are trying to hit the West's soft underbelly: the office of the magazine, Charlie Hebdo, restaurants and theaters in Paris, a café in Copenhagen, a promenade in Nice, a church in Normandy and a Christmas market in Berlin. Islamists perfectly understand that the West's most exposed flank is its home front. The same lifestyle that we defend by words is the main obstacle to the initiative of the defense against Islamists. Islamists have told us in every way, "we love death more than life", while we in the West love the expectation of life more than life itself.
Anyone who has listened to statements of Osama bin Laden and ISIS's Abu Bakr al Baghdadi knows that they showed a deep understanding of Europe's situation by offering "a truce" to any country that would distance itself from the war on terror -- or in other words, surrender....

CS Lewis once said “No clever arrangement of rotten eggs will make a delicious omelette’s”
This saying could apply to both the UN AND to a one world order
I'll see myself to the back of The FEMA Re-education Camp and take my answer from the delousing shower.
Jihad against everyone started in the 7th Century. Read about what happened to the Jews of Medina, Christians in Egypt ( the Levant ) ... in the 7th Century.
Then the Islamic slaughter of Hindus in India, the Buddhists in Afghanistan ...
Same today.
Anyone who gives Islam even a cursory glance will learn very quickly that Muslims do not define peace as the absence of war. Peace to Islam means the total elimination of any other belief system or religion it comes across. “Dar al-Islam’’ “The House of Islam’’. They achieve this by waging war, by killing. They’ve now hit upon another weapon , breeding like rabbits.
Islam commands all muslims to jihad.
So far only the most devout are following the example and instructions of their prophet.
There is no moderate Koran.
Their “holy” book tells them to subjugate, convert or kill everyone else on earth.
Jihad must continue until everyone submits or dies.
Know Islam, No Peace - No Islam, Know Peace
That's actually false.
No one is talking about this, but many Jihadis are moderate, "non-observant" Muslims. These are Muslims-In-Name-Only, who drank alcohol, had sex (possibly homosexual sex), possibly smoked pot, and didn't attend mosque regularly.
"Jihadi "Recruiters" seek out these MINO's and tell them that they are doomed for their ono-observant behavior. They are also told that they can redeem themselves, wipe out their bad behavior, and enter paradise if they will martyr themselves.
So they are basically "guilt-tripped" into murdering innocent people.
