   ....[1]the hypocrisy of Jihadi leaders.

     "The common denominator shared by Abu Qatada, [2] currently under
     arrest in Britain, Osama Nasser, who was kidnapped in Rome, [3] and
     Omar Bakri, who fled from London, [4] is that all of them want to
     [live] in the West, rather than in their native Islamic countries.
     Abu Qatada prefers to remain under arrest in Britain, and not to be
     deported to Jordan. The Italian imam Abu Omar Osama Al-Masri, who
     was kidnapped by the CIA [and taken] to Egypt, is likewise
     demanding to return to Milan, the fashion capital, and is even
     suing for financial compensation. As for the most famous of the
     three, [Omar] Bakri, he hurried to the airport and grabbed a flight
     to Lebanon when the [British] government prepared [to take]
     punitive measures against [individuals] who incite to violence.
     [But] now, after spending some time in his homeland, he is begging
     to return to London, despite all the [British] decisions, and
     despite all his statements against them.
     "What makes fundamentalist extremists, who incite against the West
     and its culture, the first to run into its arms, and to fight [for
     the right] to stay there? Do they suffer from a split personality,
     with one [personality] endorsing an ideology of hate, and the other
     wanting to enjoy the principles [that form the basis] of life in
     the West? We have never heard of [these extremists] wanting to
     immigrate to Somalia or Pakistan, or [wanting to return] to their
     countries of origin. [This], despite all their sermons and writings
     about religious duty and love of the homeland, [and despite the
     fact that] they characterize others as 'infidels,' to the extent
     that some [extremists] even call to fight [these infidels]."

   We Americans understand it. Here we call them liberals, but the
   hypocrisy is the same. Yours are very violent, but ours are ten times
   more dangerous.
