@aaronddyer@OrenKessler Again, UR mixing up Islamist (nationalist) w/ Jihadist (transnationalist). Former wants state. Latter wants erasing -
@rezaaslan@OrenKessler Please clarify. Does/will this state have geopolitical boundaries? If so, where? -
@aaronddyer@OrenKessler How I can be any clearer? Islamism=NATIONALISM. Nationalism=NATION/STATE. NATION/STATE BY DEFINITION HAS BORDERS -

@aaronddyer@orenkessler what are U asking? An Egyptian Islamist is in Egypt? A Tunisian is in Tunisia. Do U understand what nationalism is? -
@rezaaslan@OrenKessler I infer then, that this is many states, not just one. OK, then is Islamist intent to subsume/replace existing govt? -
@aaronddyer@OrenKessler That's the point. to build an Islamic STATE, whatever that means, either through force or peaceful means - 1 more reply
