    Lots of people have gore videos on their devices, doesn’t mean they will do it to someone any chance they get, correct me if im wrong, al-qaeda didn’t do beheadings, that was ISIS. And lots of muslims in palestine, afghanistan, and iran also hold beliefs about killing US civilians. We shouldn’t judge these things in a vaccum but rather in the appropriate context of US actions. US imperialism has been the number one cause of such sentiments.

    He was very ideologically aligned and islam was a central piece in that ideology. And islam forbids going against your words, it would undermine his ideology a lot if he violated the trust.
