So were his very different reasons for calls to war directed to fellow Muslims. The reasons for war against Americans were not defense, justice or reciprocity. The reasons were theological hatred and genocide because Americans were infidels.
"Soon after 9/11, an influential group of Saudi apologists wrote an open letter to the United States saying,
"The heart of the relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims is justice, kindness, and charity."
Outraged by such a claim, Bin Laden discretely wrote (in Arabic) to the Saudis the following:
"As to the relationship between Muslims and infidels, this is summarized by the Most High's Word: "We renounce you. Enmity and hate shall forever reign between us — till you believe in Allah alone" [Koran 60:4]."
"So there is an enmity, evidenced by fierce hostility from the heart. And this fierce hostility — that is, battle — ceases only if the infidel submits to the authority of Islam, or if his blood is forbidden from being shed, or if Muslims are at that point in time weak and incapable. But if the hate at any time extinguishes from the heart, this is great apostasy! Allah Almighty's Word to his Prophet recounts in summation the true relationship: "O Prophet! Wage war against the infidels and hypocrites and be ruthless. Their abode is hell — an evil fate! [9:73]." Such, then, is the basis and foundation of the relationship between the infidel and the Muslim. Battle, animosity, and hatred — directed from the Muslim to the infidel — is the foundation of our religion."

"What has happened in [Hungary], what has happened in the midst of this election campaign, is one of the worst examples of foreign election interference that I've ever seen or ever even read about," Vance said during a press conference alongside Orbán.
"The bureaucrats in Brussels have tried to destroy the economy of Hungary. They have tried to make Hungary less energy independent. They have tried to drive up costs for Hungarian consumers. And they've done it all because they hate this guy," he added.
It is five days to the election.
April 7. Today is the day Donald Trump has threatened to destroy Iran’s bridges and power plants, which could lead to the deaths of millions, if the Iranians do not “Open the F---- Strait [of Hormuz].” Israel may join the assault by attacking the country’s train lines this afternoon.
An attack on Iran’s Bushehr nuclear power station raises a Chernobyl-like radiation cloud possibility, sending death slowly over the Gulf region, making some countries uninhabitable for decades and poisoning the water in the Persian Gulf. This would shut down many of the desalination plants which produce most of the region’s drinking water.
