The more I have seen. The more I am convinced that the Jihad movement wants society to decay in terms of family and fertility to make them easier to conquer. The Roman Empire committed demographic suicide, and The nazis explicitly wanted those under their rule to die out (Slavic people) so that the Germans could replace them.
