Our enemies learn while we repeat our mistakes!

Scientists say: The happy one is he who learns from others, and the unfortunate one is he who learns from himself. And they did not mention a third case: He who does not learn, not even from himself!! But he is bitten by the same stone repeatedly. It is truly strange that we still see people affiliated with Islamic work calling for political participation in the existing systems. The American Strategic Planning Center RAND published a study in 2008 titled (How Terrorist Groups End) http://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/monographs/2008/RAND_MG741-1.pdf which reviewed the path of rebel groups in the world (especially the Islamic world, of course) from after the occupation of Palestine in 1967 to 2007 and concluded with the attached diagram, which shows that: 43% of the "extremist" groups disappeared and ended through political engagement (Politicization) .. and of course, the dissolution of their identity and the deviation of their path is considered a disappearance. 40% disappeared through intelligence and local police from among the Muslims. Only 7% disappeared through the military intervention of the international community. 10% of these groups achieved their goals. And the report stated in the exact wording: "Engagement in the political process is the main reason for the end of terrorist groups (43%)" and the recommendation was that this is a more effective and less costly method than military intervention. However, it expressed concern – and recommended military and local and international intelligence intervention – with the "extremist" thought that does not accept taming or half-solutions and seeks goals at the level of the nation, such as Sharia and the Caliphate, where the report mentioned the word "Caliphate" 13 times! And last year, the American magazine Foreign Policy said: "What could be better - as a long-term development - for Arab political culture than the entry of Islamists into a democratic process?!... Pushing Egypt towards democratic transformation is the real guarantee of preserving the values and supreme interests that Washington adopts." It seems that our enemies are learning the lesson and improving the application of the Sunnah faster than us. While many of us insist on staying in their dreams and emotions, insisting on repeating the forbidden and failed experiences, and imagining that every "new" experience has something that distinguishes it and supports its success! And it is nothing but a new butterfly that falls into the fire of (Politicization) and a new addition to the box of 43%! And yet they will say: What is the alternative?! The alternative, and the original one, is the pure call and the disciplined jihad with the self, money, and word, and bearing the heavy consequences of all that, until Allah opens between us and our enemies with the truth, and He is the best of victors.
