The roots of modern Islamic terrorism.............
“One of the first acts of the new Communist International was to call a ‘Congress of the Peoples of the East’ in Baku in September 1920. Although the emphasis at this congress was on antiwesternism rather than on a ‘proletarian’ revolution, the leaders were Comintern figures: Zinoviev, Radek, Bela Kun. About 2,000 easterners were present, including 235 Turks, 192 Persians, 157 Armenians, and a few Chinese.
....Zinoviev brought a long speech to a passionate oratorical climax with the following outburst: ‘The real revolution will blaze up only when the 800,000,000 people who live in Asia unite with us, when the African continent unites, when we see that hundreds of millions of people are in movement. Now we must kindle a real holy war against the British and French capitalists.....We must say that the hour has struck when the workers of the whole world are able to arouse tens of millions of peasants, to create a Red Army in the East, to arm and organize uprisings in the rear of the British, to poison the existence of every impudent British officer who lords over Turkey, Persia, India, China.’
At this moment the audience, mostly clad in colorful oriental costumes, sprang up. Swords, sabers, and revolvers were flourished in the air, while the vow of jehad, or holy war, was pronounced. Radek endeavored to conjure up the spirit of Tamerlane and Genghiz Khan. After saying that the East, under capitalist oppression, created a philosopy of patience, he added:
‘We appeal, comrades, to the spirit of struggle which once animated the peoples of the East when they marched against Europe under the leadership of their great conquerors. And when the capitalists of Europe say that there is the menace of a new wave of barbarism, a new wave of Huns, we reply: Long live the Red East, which, together with the workers of Europe, will create a new culture under the banner of communism.’
Although the immediate results were limited, the congress showed the direction and trend of the Comintern’s drive in the Orient.”

Islamic terrorism comes from Islam, and has been a feature of the cult since the beginning.
Both Russia and the US were stupid enough to think they could use this against each other during the Cold War.
Both of them had obviously forgotten that the way the Muslims got to overrun Spain in the 8th century, shortly after the foundation of the cult, was that they had been INVITED in by a king who was warring on another king and thought he could use them to attack his enemy. They did attack his enemy - after killing the first king himself, of course - and then went on to attack all of Spain.
This is playing out just the same way.
