When will we learn, these are men who desire the same as any man, to be respected, accepted, loved, fulfilled and yes, to gain wealth of any means. Religion has little to do with it, if it did, these men would be building with the good not destroying with the bad.
If they do not achieve fulfillment in the positive sense, many who are weak, will achieve it in the negative. Much the same as drug dealers in drug gangs do today. It's easy to kill, even a child can kill.
It takes a strong man, and work, to be a man of honor who truly knows and serves Allah. To love, and understand his brother and work together for the good of all. Islam teaches this.
Few of these people have read the Quran, nor understood it if they did. They are instructed not to seek the answers for themselves, but rather to obey the one who is lost. For Islam is a faith of love and peace, not hate and war.
It was the Prophet Muhammad who said to Christians and Jews, "Our God is Your God" Quran 29;46
"If you hurt one , you have hurt us all" Quran 5:32
"Do not be the aggressive one, even if your brother has hurt you, forgive him" Quran 2; 191 – 194
Any where Prophet Muhammad speaks of killing the unbeliever, he is referring to the unbeliever who worshiped idols .....
Yet, please don't take my word for it, read your Quran, and find truth.
