    Indeed.
    I still can’t understand why they picked up Jihadist over their US like lifestyle back in the 70s

      It’s very complicated, but I think the jihadist picked them, not the other way around. They were fleeing the country like flies.

      I’m going to do some reading about it soon, since it’s been a while and everything is hazy.

        I’m no way historian but AFAIK Jihadists were exiled at the time but people made (de)revolution so one day you got jeans and bikiny and next day all the covering dark age dresses.
