“For IS, the ideological and strategic imperatives mesh to dictate a program of eliminating the non-jihadist Muslim governments before Israel.”
Islamic State is on a completely different track from that of Mufti Amin al-Husseini and his present day fellow travelers – little or no comparison.
Islamic State was originally a reaction against Ayman al-Zawahiri’s power-hungry methods of running al Qaida. But IS was also an outgrowth of ‘AQ in Iraq’ having been joined in 2003 by Iraqi military graduates of Saddam’s 1990s Faith Campaign, who then took control of AQII after Zarqawi’s death.
The anti-Israel “al-Husseini” crowd, including the MB and Hamas, simply want local and regional power (as well as the slaughter of the evil, hot-breathing and grizzly-eyed America thing which is lurking beneath their bed or in their closet.) Back in the day, other Arabs, such as TransJordan’s Abdullah I, realized that Mainstream Zionism [1] prosperity was a plus for all sides. He welcomed the Zionist developers as full equals.
Al-Douri and company know the Mind of God better than He Himself does. Their Islamic State is an ongoing Faith Campaign to purify Islam “back to its Kharijite roots”, or something similar. … (European Christianity saw such during the late-16th, early 17th centuries. They were violently repressed by the then-new Lutherian and Cromwellian establishments, and Christianity itself moved on.)
[1] the Mainstream Zionism label is taken from Yehoshafat Harkabi’s “Israel’s Fateful Hour”, pg. 70. It emphasized socioeconomic development over a long period of time.
