Current jihad is a reaction to wrong policies of powerful western countries

Powerful countries used jihad for their favour. Like jihadies were best people in the world when they were fighting Russians in Afghanistan. When Russia was defeated, Jihadies became terrorists. These powers do not like democracies in Muslim countries. If a country is a democratic, in short time, such slogan will disappear, as people are allowed to particiapte in government. Like pakistanies voted about 75% against forces these were directly or indirectly supporting radicals. The best solution of this problem is democratic governments, probably those govt. do not suit purpose of western governments.
