They declared war on us in self-defense. It's not extremists, either. Normal Muslims believe the same, they just don't pick up a gun.

The Muslims that are killed are the wrong kind of Muslims. Not our job to get in between other people's fights. Same as this Uighur issue. Leave it to the Chinese and Muslims to figure out for themselves. Nobody wants our opinion and they'd let us know if they did.

Who in the world is demanding a US intervention? Where are they? Did we even ask the Uighurs?

We declared war on them in self defence too. Dumb argument. Islam has been trying to take over the world and commit genocide for 14 centuries and you are trying to say the USA started it.

Osama Bin Laden started Al-Qaeda because the US occupied the sacred soil of Saudi Arabia. Yup.

Saudi Arabia is a western created country. Created very recently. It's soil isn't sacred in Islam.

Uh...Mecca? Medina? Saudi Arabia is the custodian of these holy sites? I'm sorry but we're not going to be able to have an argument if you don't even know basic facts.

Osama bin Laden started al-Qaeda to drive the US troops from the sacred soil of Islam. Without US occupation, AQ wouldn't exist and 9/11 would never have happened.
