In this BBC interview, a former French jihadi, who fought in Syria, says “We are all Al Qaeda” in the sense of ideology and mindset. That is, they all want to set up an Islamic theocracy, based on Sharia Law.
Obama and Congress are actually using our tax money to fund the training of thousands of Jihadis from Europe (like the ones, who did 911) and to overthrow the secular regime in Syria. They are also now sending them weapons.
