Wasting human lives in war is the goal of jihad. This is the part that westerners have a hard time understanding.

Why does Hamas hold hostages in tunnels under their own civilian populations? Not because they think Israel will hesitate to bomb there, they know they won't.

It's because the death of their own population is a goal in itself.



If wasting human lives in war is the goal of Jihad then America and Israel are the highest and most supreme jihadis in the world for several decades.


I believe that the argument was that jihad is about wasting the lives of their own citizens; America and Israel generally manage to reduce that.
