Quote:I didn't realize you weren't old enough to know about them, my apologies.Buddy I know who the above groups are I was saw 9/11 happen this again has nothing to do with my point and no it's not indicator of anything till the current Syrian government does something actually bad I remain open to the possibility positive change might come you can dwell in cynicism.
ISIS and Al Qaeda are/were two Islamic Jihadi groups of the Middle East that caused us a lot of problems over the last two decades - they have been fairly checked in your life time, but for awhile there they were the "Russia/China" of importance and we even went into the countries they had established strongholds in to check their power; you might remember the American withdrawl of troops from Afghanistan a few years and the Talibans' assumption of power there?
Same dynamic and same war but just a different faction - and given the thousands of Americans they killed, the bombs in subways or public events, the thousands of Kurds they have forced into slavery and tens of thousands they have butchered, and their strict adherence to an extremely radical and fundamental branch of Islam should be a good indicator of why you shouldn't trust them.

“No matter what men think, abortion is a fact of life. Women have always had them; they always have and they always will. Are they going to have good ones or bad ones? Will the good ones be reserved for the rich, while the poor women go to quacks?”
