deas is _________________________.
Please answer quickly, do NOT put in 'go look it up on google' or anything that is not the answer to this question. I tried looking this up before and there was only one result with the response basically saying 'go ask a parent or guardian, then try google, and if that doesn't work, use brainly' which honestly ruins the point of this website (in my opinion). Will give 5 stars and thanks to correct answer.

In his most famous piece of work, The Prince, Niccolò Machiavelli basically wrote a manual on the types of existing principalities, poiniting out the difference between each of them, on the foundations of power and, finally, on the norms of conduct that the one who aspires to be prince must adopt.

According to the author, it was not enough to achieve power; the prince should be able to keep it, and to do so, he would have to be respected by the people, acting accordingly to each circumstance, changing strategies as appropriate. The most famous saying that synthesizes the Machiavellian though is "The ends justify the means", which means that in order to remain in the custody of power (which would be the "end"), the prince is authorized to act in the most convenient manner, not necessarily needing to stick to rigid moral principles and ethical norms.

When it was founded, the primary goal of Al-Qaeda was to do what?
Kamila [148]

The correct answer is remove all western ideas from nations who were muslim

The Al-Qaeda group emerged in 1988, in Afghanistan, as a Salafist organization, led by Saudi Osama Bin-Laden.

In the 1990s, the group would adopt strong anti-American and anti-Western rhetoric and be responsible for several attacks around the world, including the attack on the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001.

Al Qaeda members' ideology comes from salfism.

Salafism was a Sunni Islamic movement that emerged in Cairo, Egypt, in the late 19th century.

Its aim was to reform Islam for the 20th century, after the intense contact that this religion had with the western world. Thus, he preached the return to the origin, with a more rigorous reading of the Al-Koran, the foundation of the Islamic faith. For this reason, they are also called fundamentalists.

The movement spread throughout the Islamic world and won over several people like Muhammad ibn al-Wahhab'Abd, who advocated a rigorous reading of the Muslim holy book and even helped to found the Saudi Kingdom of Arabia.

Likewise, there are currents that defend political Islam and others that prefer to remain on the sidelines of politics, as occurs in Western politics. Finally, there are those who believe that jihad, in its form of holy war, is a legitimate way to spread Islam around the world.
