Interesting deflection. I'm not asking for an explanation of a well understood concept.
I'm asking what specific "western imperialism" justifies the actions of extremist Islamic terrorists, in your opinion?
Why would you feel guilty? You never made those decisions. You should, like I do be ashamed for the media and government members that didn't do their job of holding those responsible of atrocities accountable.
The same kind of accountability you seem to admonish Islamic terrorists for.
Explaining the word you didn't understand is not a deflection.
Explains =/= Justifies. Don't understand your obsession with this concept.
I live in and benefit from a system that is built upon and fuelled by decisions like those, not planning to go live in the woods but I do feel guilt for the actions of my countries and those it is aligned with.

strawman
i never said my stance was based on what you describe
that being said, the palestinians themselves tell the whole story "from the river to the sea"
they want israel and all jews gone, they are attacking and murdering jews since the 1920s, started multiple wars etc
those are the facts, cold hard facts and they make it pretty easy to take a side
You are extremely ignorant.

I mean there are like 1.8 billion muslims in the world. 1% bad guys ? Is 18 mil. More than enough to be afraid of..
and we do see how they act in name of Islam in Syria, Yemen etc…
There are 2.38 billion Christians, by that logic they are a much bigger threat.
