To Our Countries is a project produced by a group of youths who live in Sweden and are originally from Syria, Iraq, Lebanon and Palestine.
Statistically, the majority of terrorism is our terrorism, it is state terrorism.
The greatest victims of terrorism are Muslims.
The whole understanding of terrorism is upside down.
Now there is as opposed to state terrorism, privatized terrorism, it’s very tiny. It’s run by organizations like Al-Qaeda.
There is a study from the University of Chicago a study that found of this privatized terrorism in the last 30-odd years, something like 20,000 people had died, a very tiny figure compared to the millions who have died as result of state terrorism.
The attacks on 9/11 were appropriated by a clique in the U.S. establishment in order to further its aims around the world.
There is no war on terror. There is a war of terror.

The White House has acknowledged for the first time that strict standards President Obama imposed last year to prevent civilian deaths from U.S. drone strikes will not apply to U.S. military operations in Syria and Iraq.
At a briefing for members and staffers of the House Foreign Affairs Committee late last week, Syrian rebel commanders described women and children being hauled from the rubble after a cruise missile destroyed a home for displaced civilians. Images of badly injured children also appeared on YouTube, helping to fuel anti-U.S. protests in a number of Syrian villages last week.
“They were carrying bodies out the rubble. … I saw seven or eight ambulances coming out of there,” said Abu Abdo Salabman, a political member of one of the Free Syria Army factions, who attended the briefing for Foreign Affairs Committee members and staff.
Hayden said that a much-publicized White House policy that President Obama announced last year barring U.S. drone strikes unless there is a “near certainty” there will be no civilian casualties does not cover the current U.S. air strikes in Syria and Iraq.
The “near certainty” standard was intended to apply “only when we take direct action ‘outside areas of active hostilities,’ as we noted at the time,” Hayden said in an email. “That description — outside areas of active hostilities — simply does not fit what we are seeing on the ground in Iraq and Syria right now.”
“They seem to be creating this grey zone” for the conflict, said Harold Koh, who served as the State Department’s top lawyer during President Obama’s first term. “If we’re not applying the strict rules [to prevent civilian casualties] to Syria and Iraq, then they are of relatively limited value.”
“I did hear them say there were civilian casualties, but I didn’t get details,” Kinzinger said in an interview with Yahoo News. “But nothing is perfect,” and whatever civilian deaths resulted from the U.S. strikes are “much less than the brutality of the Assad regime.”
The video shows armed men in fatigues, at least one wearing the yellow arm band sported by the Lebanese Shiite movement, dragging several bloodied men out of a van and shooting them dead.
The men speak in the Lebanese dialect of Arabic, and at the end of the video one man calls them over, saying:
“One moment, one moment. We are doing our duty, not avenging ourselves.”
The others call out:
“For the sake of God, for the sake of God.”
Hezbollah declined to comment on it.
Al-Arabiya television said it may have been filmed during the battle for Qusayr, a strategic Syrian town near the Lebanese border that Syrian troops recaptured from rebels with the help of Hezbollah earlier this year.

Hassan Nasrallah and his Hezbollah have lambasted Syria’s “Sunni takfiri fighter’s” for the atrocities they committed against pow’s, wounded soldiers and civilians, and that they supposedly held the moral high ground in that area, but this video proves that they are no better.
