APPeter,
I have read books on the subject; I have studied backgrounds of religions and I have read articles on it. It's not too much more complicated than that.
To really break it down:
1) They are Muslim.
2) The extremists who care to interpret the Koran literally believe they are called to Holy Jihad - war against non-Muslims --- mostly Christians.
3) They believe the more non-Muslims they kill in the name of Allah, the more rewards they get in "their heaven".
4) Since they believe the US is a mostly Christian nation, then they consider all Americans to be Christians, therefore, non-Muslim, therefore enemies in Holy Jihad.
5) Their heaven consists of eternal sexual pleasures involving young virgins among other things. I don't think it includes possessing a PSA 9 Wagner T206, though.
6) So they like killing us.
7) That's the honest to Allah truth and not very complicated...
Hussein chose not to wear the hood during his hanging. I'm very thankful for this as that one decision most likely decreased by half the number of conspriacy theories that Saddam wasn't really killed thus saving us from video documentaries on YouTube claiming that he's still alive.
