Introduction
There a religious component. How long as it been around? I will expound on terrorist organizations. There are several state actors involved in this type of terrorism. What happened Oct. 7th? Which countries are affected by it?
Religious Component
Salafism and a Wahhabism (a major sub-variant) is the main motivations 4 this form of terrorism. Keep in mind not all Muslims that practice this type of Islam are terrorists. Only a significant minority are. Sayyid Qutb created the philosophical basis of this type of terrorism.
History
Rashid Rida is the grandfather of Sunni Terrorism. His ideas motivated the jihadists. He wanted a Sunni caliphate to unite all Muslims. Political and religious reform would led to a better Muslim community. He neva was an advocate of violence. Sayyid Qutb hijacked his ideas. Qutb was a big inspiration Al-Qaeda. Sayyid believed Westernization was corrupting Islamic societies. He advocated Muslims jihading Europe.
Arab nationalism took a hit after the 6 day war. Then Salafism became popular in the Gulf states. Men from the different parts of the Islamic world became the workforce for the oil industry in those nations. They got influenced by Salafism and brought that insanity home (country of origin) with them. Then it spread like wildfire. In the 1970's terrorists that were Salafists followed Qutbism.
Organizations
Muslim Brotherhood (MB): It was started by Hasan al-Banna. He believed Egypt was becoming to Westernized. In his mind Islam should the national identity of Egypt. A constitution and political parties were good ideas he thought. Members of this organization felt it was a religious duty to give $. They have a monthly subscription and give donations. Qatar has also given it a lot of money. They are the biggest political opposition in the Arab world!!! After Mubarak crown was knocked off, the MB tookova the government. Then the military tookova and executed 400 of them. This brotherhood maybe freemasonic.
Hamas: This organization started in 1987. It's the Palestinian branch of the Muslim brotherhood. They have committed terrorist attacks on the state of Israel. They make life much harder 4 Palestinians. Because of their attacks Israel, it has a green light to kill innocent Palestinians. When Israeli Defense Force attacks Palestinians, they will say they are fighting Hamas. Gaza has been ruled by them for 18 years. They have become a convenient excuse 4 genocide. Knowingly or unknowingly they are servants of the Zionists agenda.
Al-Qaeda: They were founded by Osama Bin Laden in 1988. Decision making is centralized and execution is decentralized. Several attacks in different countries have been committed by them. This organization grew out of the Mujahideen. Their funds came from Osama, drug trafficking, and donations. They want 2 create a worldwide caliphate and they Muslim nations to shun European nations.
ISIS: It started in 2004 and was the Iraqi branch of Al-Qaeda. It started right after the 2nd Gulf War. They wanted to takeova Iraq and impose Sharia law. Yazidis were genocided by them tin that country. Sometimes they would behead people on video; that inspired Mexican Drug Cartels to do it too. Some of them engaged in cannibalism. 4 a little while they were @ war with history and destroyed many artifacts. When turned their attention to Syria; so the U.S. supported them after that 4 about a minute. That's was because the Yankees wanted to oust the ex Syrian president. In 2014 they had $2 billon dollars. Most of came from stealing and Al-Qaeda casted them out because of their brutality.
Boko Harem: It was started in 2002. The goal was to eliminate Shia Islam in Nigeria and take ova the government. It didn't become a jihidist organization until 7 years later. They fellow Wahhabism, which is the shittist form of Islam. They believe Nigeria has been corrupted by Europeans. 56 school boys was set on fire by them. The year after that, they kidnaped 267. Many attacks have been carried out by them. Their funds come from extortion and kidnapping 4 ransom. Several countries offered Nigeria assistance in battling these terrorists.
State Actors
Saudi Arabia: They have funded Al-Qaeda and ISIS. Islamic charities are used to fund Sunni terrorists. Jemaah Islamiyah was a terrorist group in southeast Asia that was funded by the Saudis. One of the cofounders of the Council on American-Islamic Relations is a Hamas supporter. Other members of the council have been arrested 4 being terrorists.
Israel: It helped ISIS and Jabhat al-Nusra during the Syrian Civil War. They took care of ISIS fighters in their hospitals. Mossad start funding Hamas 1987, because the Israeli government preferred them ova the PLO. In 1998 Bibi told Turkey send Hamas sum $. They also sold weapons to Neo-Nazis in Ukraine.
United States: Last century the government supported Islamists. They did it in the hope it would snuff out Arab nationalism and stop Soviet expansion. Mujahidin was funded and trained by the U.S. and its allies. The Pentagon and the CIA funded and trained rival militias in Syria. Obama said the military was training ISIL.
Great Britain: A British agent was working with Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Wahhāb ibn Sulaymān al-Tamīmī, he helped him in the hope it would weaken the Ottoman empire. Remember Wahhabism is the main inspiration 4 Sunni terrorism. Sudan had vital information on Al-Qaeda leaders in the 90's, but the MI6 rejected it. They support terrorists that have whose interests intersect with their own.
Oct. 7th
On that date in 2023 Hamas attacked Israel. Earlier that year a woman from Unit 8200 told her superiors about a imminent attack. But they didn't believe her because they were sexist. The attack was allowed to happen; so they could kill innocent Gazans. IDF killed some the hostages @ the music festival. They may have killed as many as 435 people. Bibi was on trial right b4 that happened. He probably would have went to prison. Part of the reason this genocide have continued is so he can have a get out jail 4 free card.
List of Countries
Afghanistan: The Taliban tookova this country in 1996. They vey brutal and mistreated women, but they end drug trafficking there. It was common for men of the Mujahedeen to have male sex slaves. They were called Bacha bazi; the Taliban outlawed it. The CIA was getting info from the boy rapers during their war against the Taliban. In exchange for info they would give them Viagra. Some U.S marines and/or soldiers tried to stop the boy rape and they were dishonorably discharged. The U.S. set up a puppet government in Afghanistan that lasted 4 a spell. Then the Taliban tookova again.
Iraq: Saddam Hussein supported terrorism. He gave money to the families of Hamas suicide bombers. Terrorists form Turkey, Iran and Isra-Hell got financial support and training there. B4 the first Gulf War Osama wanted to kill Saddam. He asked the Saudi royal family to back him, but they wouldn't. He didn't want the Yankees in Muslim land. ISIS (Israeli Secret Intelligence Service) started in Iraq after Saddam lost his crown.
Syria: The government of this nation terrorized it citizens. The Muslim Brotherhood fought government as well. During the civil war many terrorist militias were active in Syria. Some of the militias were supported by the Pentagon, while others were supported by the CIA. Those 2 support groups battled each other. The Syrian government was defeated by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham. The leader of the organization became the new president of Syria. Prior to that, the CIA had $10 million on his head.
Libya: Muammar Gaddafi supported various terrorists groups. After his sodomy death ISIS overran the country. Then they enslaved Africans and Arabs. The new government of Libya continues to fight terrorism. Various militias with ties to different political parties are battling each other @ the moment. Some of them want democracy, while others want a caliphate.
Burkina Faso: It seems like Blaise, the longest running president worked with terrorists. This country has been attacked Al-Qaeda and ISIS. Terrorist attacks started in 2015 and have continued since then. The government is working on counterterrorism and is getting help from other countries in that regard.
Mali: In 2012 Tuareg militants attacked security forces with the help of Al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups. France and the UN decided to help Mali defeat the terrorists. ISIS and friends encouraged different tribes to fight each other. Last year ova half a million people have been displaced by terrorist.
There are many other countries with issues resulting from Sunni terrorism, but this will suffice
Conclusion
Sunni terrorism has been around a long time. @ least 50 years and it's inspired by radical forms of Islam. There are many Sunni terrorist organizations that effect many countries. Several state actors use this form of terrorism to promote its own agenda. October 7, 2023 was the day the Israeli intelligence community allowed Hamas to attack the country. So, they could use it as an excuse to kill innocent people in Gaza. It reminds me of 9/11. There no way to stop Sunni terrorism.
