Divided Allegiances in Dissident JihadismReader comment on item: Interview: Islamism's War on the West Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Sep 2, 2020 at 11:52 Jihadi violence comes in wave after wave after wave; every once in a cycle it comes in like a sea surge, a tsunami of sorts, when some perception that a tactical advantage or circumstance of making a 'statement' to capture the attention of a broader audience is sought. Question: does it invoke terror; or does it incur division of loyalties-(are the 'Palestinians' served by jihadist attacks or isolated by them)- Iran seems offended that the UAE arrangement does not help the 'Palestinian' cause; but the isolation of the 'Palestinians' is not the real source of incense as much the 'betrayal' of Sunni influences against Shiite: Arab versus Persian.
