I probably explained myself badly.

What they want is to terrorize. Their success is measured in money.

Any economist will just point out that money is how most things are measured as regards human relations in a normal society.

No, their success is measured in how well they achieve their goals such as ridding an invader from land they consider sacred.

You know why they're pissed off, right?

Knowing our enemy is rather essential if we want to stop this war one day.

It's a little more complicated than that, as one of those "atrocities against Muslims" is the existence of Israel. Even if the US ended support for Israel, it's likely that Muslims would still bear animus towards the West due to Israel's pro-Western worldview.

Now, maybe if we started bombing Israel to demonstrate our sincerity...
