Sadly this was done by our Muslim brother. He recently converted to Islam from the Assyrian Church group itself.

Your name is "Jihadist". Are you even sentient enough to understand the name you are posting remarks under?

Are you suggesting the correct noun is mujihad?

I am stating that someone with the name of Jihadist should not be soliciting sympathy for their Muslim brother who was openly committing an act of Jihadism. Or to put it short, he should have known better then to comment on this matter, and should have refrained from doing so.

I am also Putting into Question the authenticity of the account holder, and their understanding of the account name "Jihadist". A name that carries with it, very strong negative inclinations.

He chose a name that means "Holy warrior", causing his statement read as follows:

"It sure is unfortunate, that our holy warrior, who recently switched sides attacked his former group. An act I encourage, and named myself after." -Holy Warrior

Muslims use the word Jihad to describe three different kinds of struggle: A believer's internal struggle to live out the Muslim faith as well as possible. The struggle to build a good Muslim society. Holy war: the struggle to defend Islam, with force if necessary.

Only the last one has negative connotations to a westerner.

None the less, he is aware of the implications. Just as I am aware of all of the implications of my name.
