Mhm given that Israel is doing a jihad right now... Perhaps he's right or he mispoke.

Okay Israel is not doing Jihad. Israel is doing what uninformed Westerners imagine when they hear the word "Jihad". Let's not get things mixed up.

They are certainly on a religious crusade to get rid of the Palestinians who occupy their holy land.

I mean they're doing genocide, which runs contradictory to the purpose of Jihad since you can't spread Islam (or any religion, really) to dead people. That's why I'm saying to not get things mixed up.

I'm not sure he knows what the word "jihad" means.

It's Arabic so it's bad and terroristic. -- Boris perhaps.
