"the west and the Jews."
The West certainly - only an Antisemite would link the Jewish people with the policies of Israel or suggest that 'The Jews' have any policy
They are as diverse as any other ethnic or religious group on the planet - please stop stereotyping them - history has shown how lathal that can be
Every religion has its radical or extremist groups - superstition based on supreme beings tends to do that
Isis rose from being an insignificant sect of cranks into a major International terrorist threat because the West didn't care enough to do something about a despot with a penchant for torturing and murdering anybody who spoke against him and his regime
Instead of opposing what he was doing, they sided with him against protesters demanding a better life and provided him with equipment which allowed him to imprison, torture and murder them
When all this is over, they will almost certainly seek to bury his crimes and BECOME HIS FRIEND AGAIN
