They hate injustice

Why do 'they' hate 'us'? Why do 'they' – the Jihadis, the Arabs, the Muslims – hate 'us' – God-fearing Americans who want to bring freedom and democracy to every corner of the world?

“The Blair-Bush message: terror is simply the product of an evil ideology”. (The Guardian: Denial of the link with Iraq is delusional and dangerous) It's 'us' against 'them', freedom and democracy against Islamo-fascism... Bush, Blair and all the commentators who claim that “they hate us because of our freedoms” are the real fascists who want to whip up an anti-terror war to break-down what's left of precisely those freedoms in the West. What is fascism? It is one of the most brutal stages of capitalism, where the bourgeoisie sheds all its false pretenses of democracy and freedom to impose the dictatorship of bureaucrat-capitalism and crush any resistance by the working class. Look at Hitler. Now look at Osama bin Laden. There is much wrong with the guy, but he is not a fascist, not even an islamo-fascist. He is hiding in a corner of a medieval society dreaming about a kaliphate. Nothing fascist about that.

Why is this so called Islamo-fascist ideology flourishing now? Do 'they' attack 'us' because of our lifestyles? Then why doesn't Al-Qaeda attack Amsterdam or Stockholm? Why didn't they attack Britain before the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq?

The simple reason is that they don't attack 'us' because of our freedoms or lifestyles, but because of what the Western powers have done and are still doing in the Middle East: invading and oppressing peoples. 'We' are not bringing 'freedom' and 'democracy' to the Middle East, but only oppression, killings and exploitation. And so 'they' hate 'us'. Rightly so!

“A society can live with kufr (non-believers) but not with injustice,” dismissed Pakistani chief justice Iftikhar Chaudhry was quoted on the Counterpunch website (Counterpunch: Pakistan's New Jihad by Ayesha Ijaz Khan)

They can live with non-believers – they don't kill us because we are not Muslims; they kill us because we bring injustice upon them. Stop the injustice, and the war on terror will be won, by 'us' and by 'them' – together.
