Poll question: How many people think "Jihadism" can be "defeated"? |
|
I'm just wondering how many people here think jihadism can be defeated like a wartime enemy.

4. 'Jihadism' is jingoism |
|
and subjective, therefore undefeatable in the military sense of the word.

5. well, lemme see...there was the Crusades...... |
|
that was a rousing success, right? (cough, cough!)
i can't believe there are people who believe this load of crap being sold by bushler...but then again, PT Barnum said there's a sucker born every minute. He forgot to add that most of them seem to have born in the USA!

7. Jihadism means different things to different people... |
|
but no, it cannot be defeated like an enemy. Its followers can be educated, in some cases arrested and subdued, but not by military force.

8. "Jihad" means "struggle" |
|
I'm not sure what is meant by the term you use. I feel that terms involving "jihad" have been hijacked by the MSM to mean terrorism, and that is not what the word means.
