Take heart, Zeb. My youngest went with several guys I didn’t like, including a felon. Then one came along who treated her like she saw me treat her Mom. Now he’s my fine son-in-law, and they’re coming up on 25 years.
Some of them “adopt” Muslims because they see them as victims of Western Imperialism (TM).
The more dangerous type believe that Muslims will make good “muscle” that they can exploit to their own ends.
They view Muslims as “useful idiots”, unaware that Muslims view them in exactly the same way.
Rather like Ambrose Bierce defining “Love” as “A relationship between two people in which each participant senses supremacy due to the other’s stupidity”.
He makes money, that’s all he knows and he doesn’t care who he has to doublecross or use to get it. Once he outlives his usefulness to his latest clients and they turn the jihad on him because he knows too much, he might come to his senses….but not likely, the majority of that generation only sees the hustle and cares about nothing except a ‘payday’, no matter how they get it…other than taking a real job, that’s for other people.

Guess I’m late to the party. When did we find out this John Blood was a conniving Muslim with eyes on the Double D?
Go back one strip.
Not a Muslim, a Muslim-adjacent progressive.

clear ether
eon
Iranian commies made common cause with the mullahs to get rid of the Shah, thinking they could control or liquidate them once he was gone.
Turns out 7th century Muslims are more ruthless than 20th century commies.
Calling ACME for anvils. Wile E. Coyote-style. Blood is bad, bad, bad. Conniving. Direct action required.
Mari just might make him change his ways.
She has assets
So may Zed. He has a shovel.
One suspects the Muslims might take out Blood if properly misinformed. A T-1000 or two might be useful in such a mission.
