none what so ever and the reason why people worldwide should care is depending on how powers shift in the middle east, another major war could be looming and that will not be good for anyone living on this planet
This. What most people fail to understand about Islam is that it isn't a "religion,' but is a way of life in ALL things, including governance. It does not recognize the Western distinction between church and state, but rather combines the religious, social, and political edicts into one pervasive system. It also encourages believers to spread this system by any means necessary, and there is the prophetic belief that it is the will of god that it triumph over all of the earth.
Before the "modern" era of Jihad, the last big one led by the Ottoman empire penetrated into Europe and nearly took Vienna, Austria in the late 17th century. It is important to understand that the people who believe in this religious duty will stop at nothing to conquer or destroy non-believers, because they beleive it is the will of god.

Muslim brotherhood
In 1928, Hassan al-Banna founded the Muslim Brotherhood, a rigidly conservative and highly secretive Egyptian-based organization dedicated to resurrecting a Muslim empire (Caliphate). According to al-Banna, "It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated, to impose its law on all nations and to extend its power to the entire planet."[54] The Muslim Brotherhood, also called Muslim Brethren (jamiat al-Ikhwan al-muslimun, literally Society of Muslim Brothers), it opposes secular tendencies of Islamic nations and wants return to the precepts of the Koran, and rejection of Western influences. [55] Al Bana was Born out of the extreme Muslim right wing's desire to counter the ideology of modernization, the Brotherhood's platform included a strict interpretation of the Koran (Quran) that glorified suicidal violence. Along with Al Banna, the grand Mufti of Jerusalem Haj-al Amin Al-Husseini was also an enormously influential Muslim leader of the time. Together, the two created a powerful and popular Islamist party by classically appealing to fundamentalist Islamic principals while blaming the world's problems on the Jews.[56] Al-Banna also gave the group the motto it still uses today: "Allah is our purpose, the Prophet our leader, the Quran our constitution, jihad our way and dying for God our supreme objective." The 9/11 Commission Report states the Brotherhood's influence on Osama bin Laden and on Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman responsible for the 1993 attack on the WTC. [54][57] An important aspect of the Muslim Brotherhood ideology is the sanctioning of Jihad such as the 2004 fatwa issued by Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawimaking it a religious obligation of Muslims to abduct and kill U.S. citizens in Iraq.[55]
