No Longer Silent

No Longer, Silent Could it not be that youth of Muslim origin go and fight in Syria and elsewhere Because they see western nation bombing one country but sparing their oil allies? Do we think so little of them that we think they have been groomed to see the obvious? And being young want to fight back to defend their Arabic heritage and cultural values. We only have to look at Palestine and their plight and not be angry. The young men and women who fight for ISIS do so because it gives them a structure in life, the West has denied them.
