3. Oh please. They are religious fanatics.

Inoculated from the time of their birth to believe the most misogynistic, homophobic, anti-democratic shit you can imagine.

When they are cutting off people’s heads they truly believe the are doing gods work.

History is full of folks like this. From all religions.

Why do you doubt their claims?

When someone tells you what they are, you really should believe them.

Now, have various powers tried to use them to their advantage? No doubt. The Turks and Saudis come to mind. And since a large percentage of Saudis actually agree with their theology that is where I look.

Because the Saudis regularly cut off people’s heads. In public. Gods will and all.
