Deep State is a far greater to me than Islamists.
Exactly. What’s Hamas going to do — force Americans to get experimental “vaccines” or lose their jobs? Oh, wait a minute …
“Deep State is a far greater to me than Islamists.”
I’m familiar with both. I’ve worked proximate to them for over 20 years.
However ‘bad’ Deep State is it is not even in the same galaxy as Islamist terrorists.
This is a typical pre-ISIS Islamist terror attack tactic from the Iraq insurgency:
A large (usually Sunni) family function is held such as a wedding, funeral, holiday celebration, etc. AIQ (nee ISIS) learns of it an crashes the event venue. Say there are 200 people from several dozen families. AIQ orders them to turn in their phones and group-up by family. AIQ then executes one or more members of each family, summarily, in front of the gathered families.
Each family is held at bay by one or more terrorists holding AKs, RPDs, etc. pointed towards them. Once the shock has set in the terrorists explain that they will all be killed shortly unless 3 volunteers step forward -a man, a woman and child. Three step forward. They are instructed that a vehicle is parked outside which must be driven to a specific location whereupon the driver will depress the detonator. They are given a short time to accomplish the this. If they are successful the families will be released. If not they are all killed. The bombers are sent on their way to detonate their VBIED at the objective usually a checkpoint, market, convoy, mosque, etc. The terrorists keep their word.
Hundreds of such attacks occurred in Iraq during the insurgency. ISIS continued the practice. Families scattered when ISIS came into town to protect against the entire family being killed. Yeah, that’s about it. Morally equivalent to Deep State?
