Insh a Allah until everybody else realizes the thread, there is a conflict of definitions Michelle. What we see as self defense, US and Israel insist on calling it terrorism. And that is in general. For example, no one heard of how Muslims suffered in Philipines for years, they were exposed to exterminations during the 80s, oppression and more. Only when Abu Siaf started trying to gain some rights, they called the world attention to the new MUSLIM TERRORIST group. Examples are numerous. See Michelle, after the dismantling of the Soviet Union and collaps of communism throughout the world. US began to focus more attention on Islam the only remaining monster threatening its unilateral ruling position. The Congress openly opposes any member or presidential candidate who tries to call for the decrease of US to Isreal. To the US admin, they are not using a double standard, but rather protecting their interests and securing a unique position for the American citezen in the world.
Still more to be coming................................
