Tractatus Terroismo Philosophicus

The video purposefully oversimplifies how we got to this point, and improperly places blame.

To be completely honest and rather harsh, the video does not belong in philosophy. It does not begin to explore asking the right questions on what really happened for those images and clips, nor does it challenge us to really reconsider our perceptions of truth and fact on how we ended up so divided along these various ideological lines (religious, governmental, sociological, or some combination of.) One place, and one people's movement is not going to solve a damn thing.

It is just a poorly put together political piece in hopes the viewer ignores the history of violence and why humanity is so prone to it, especially in the area of question.

Islam alone is not at fault, neither is "the west" alone at fault, or whoever is in Jerusalem, or is one religion, or is one culture, etc. To engage in that level of foolish finger-pointing ignores both history and the entire point of philosophy. All these images used out of context ends up at propaganda, and that causes far more problems than it solves just as this horrible video illustrates.

Even the title itself is misleading, probably intentionally.
