Let me see if I understand the underlying Oxford Ivy League logic here?

They say an ISLAMIC faith terrorist group and its regional followers.
All SWORN to the elimination of ANY faith other than ISLAM are the victims.

Because the terrorists and their supporters got their asses handed to them for kidnapping, raping and murdering women and yes even raping children under 12 on a regular basis. A faith promised an afterlife of sleeping with a ## of temporary virgins for raping and murdering women and children of any other faith?

But the Oxford Union votes overwhelmingly (82+%) that those defending themselves from terrorists are to blame and are genocidal?

NOTE: Given the fact, just attending Oxford costs over $75k a year. It is clear the Oxford Union has 278 Uber-Rich $$ Dumbass Elite Liberals, in a bad need of a 1am wake-up call.

#4 The King and Country Debate was a debate on 9 February 1933 at the Oxford Union Society. The motion presented, "That this House will under no circumstances fight for its King and country", passed with 275 votes for the motion and 153 against it. The motion would later be named the Oxford Oath or the Oxford Pledge.
It became one of the most controversial topics held within the Union, driving debate between the older and younger generations about patriotism and pacifism, and whether this motion would actually help or hurt war prevention efforts.
Winston Churchill claimed that the Oxford Oath affected certain decisions made by Adolf Hitler during the World War II. American pacifists would take their own version of the pledge, and several anti-war strikes would take place with the pledge as the main drive.
