Syria crisis: Al-Nusra pledges allegiance to al-Qaeda

Just breaking as I type.

www.bbc.co.uk...


The leader of the al-Nusra Front, a jihadist group fighting in Syria, has pledged allegiance to the leader of al-Qaeda, Ayman al-Zawahiri.


So It looks like the USA,Uk and others are backing the Rebels who are backing Al Qaeda.....
Anyone else see how silly all this is?

No, it's the exact same thing that happened in Libya.

It certainly makes no sense that we were helping the French fight of alqaeda in Mali, yet funding the very same throat cutters in Syria.

I'm sure someone can clear the matter up.

The matter cleaned.

Goal justifies the means.

Like killing OBL justifies occupying and invading Afghanistan.

Like using nuclear bomb on Japanese is justified.

Like killing Palestinians is justified.

Ho hum...

The thing that irritates me the most it what caused all of this terrorism business in the first place; the Muslim faith used to be very peaceful... so what happened? Well the term jihad was perverted, away from it's original meaning. It meant that the practitioner was to have an internal holy war... yep it was meant to take place within ones self as a purification ritual, to clean their temples(bodies) so Allah could reside within it. Much like Vishnu embodying a Hindu practitioner.

So at some point; a very misguided person; decided to take the concept or a jihad and externalize it instead... so what did this do? Well, it was basically saying the infection of the temple and defilement exists out there, it is only within because it can come in from outside... So by externalizing the jihad, extremists are taught that the external world is the enemy including your brothers and everyone else that do not embrace this view; making every one an infidel defiler not of the same belief.

So the only real honest way to fight this terrorist breeding concept is to educate them, that the external jihad is wrong that one must purify their temples within as it was originally meant to be and practiced at one time.

Of course the quran has been rewritten to make it all an external struggle instead... how in the world will there ever be peace if the whole world outside of Islam is seen as the enemy? Tolerance was just tossed completely out of the window.

So that's the sad thing about this... as long as people are being misguided to what their texts originally intended for them by those with their own agendas; all of this conflict is going nowhere any time soon. Extremist all or nothing views no matter what religion is not inspired by any person or being of peace.

Rebels/freedom fighters/terrorists one name for the same thing... so it's natural for these forces to join up together. War only ceases by diplomacy, tolerance and understanding. Lasting peace has never come from war. War only breeds hate and that hate lingers and builds and grows in the mind of people, until it explodes in another war or conflict. Point the guns away from people and instead aim your ears at them, that's the only way for a lasting resolution of peace.
