What you have said above is very true and understanding were you are coming from.

But one point is take example of Pakistan, US has been giving so many grants to them for such a long time. But the govt or the military ruler has only filled their own pockets in the process and people from the religious side are only used to divert minds of people.

Also the Grand Mufti should have also mentioned the meaning of Jehad and its significance to people at large.

As the people who are taking young people in the name of jehad are being brainwashed under the name of Islam and muslims.
