Almost all armed conflicts today are Islamic. This is because the 1400 year old practice of Jihad, which has never ceased, has taken the spotlight again through the efficient vehicle of terror.
Jihad was the dominant force in the world during the 800 year reign of the Islamic empires. The duty of a Muslim to kill the kafir and spread Islam (Jihad) worked well while the sword was the dominant weapon.
However, with the rise of civlization, Jihad couldnt beat the higher technology of the Europeans and the Islamic Turks kept losing to the higher tech-Euros.
Islam always produced superior numbers and endless hords of brainwashed Jihadists but Islam also suffocated technological advance. So, it was only a couple hundred years ago that Jihad fell off the front page.
The technology or terror has put Jihad back on the map, and its here to stay as long as Islam is because Islam has always compelled Jihad.
