Is this a plan or something?
You're right, It is a plan.
I mean, you have to wonder why a globally designated terrorist group like ISIS seem to have consolidated power with such ease with limited equipment, and then, a bit like the movie
falling down, going on to gain better weaponry as they progress on their horrible journey.
How did a nutty group with unkempt beards, 1970s slippers, guns and knives manage to do so well and end up having more & more equipment? It is too easy to say "they put fear into others". Mighty odd, that in an age where we've got amazing satellites / drones / lasers even, this group openly congregates together and have continued to thrive.
Money? ok, what's that in Iraqi Dinars? (please!), more like Petrodollars, because just like Syria, the oil continues to flow - it is just that those selling it are now a different group.
Horrible, Horrible, Horrible group, and some of their propaganda would make a talmudist like Manis Friedman proud.
More considered analysts have stated that this ISIS group are "
Khurooj" (not sure of the spelling - but worth checking out?) - In fact, as I recall when an interviewer suggested this to an ISIS terrorist, the latter totally lost the plot - the kind of reaction that proves a point I think. Clearly, they are rejected by most of the 1.8 Billion Muslims on this earth.
Worryingly, whilst
shmoozing this thread I came across this scary post:
In fact Islamism [is] ignorant (about anything except the Book).
Suggesting what exactly? That ISIS / Islamists are interpreting "
The Book" in
non-ignorant way? seems a bit dangerous to the 1.8 Billion Muslims who actually believe that it is the Islamists that are in fact ignorant about "
The Book";
Given that the majority of Muslims reject & oppose ISIS as "khurooj", does this then make the majority of ordinary Muslims who are anti-ISIS
ignorant of "
The Book"?
Scary indeed, but the show must go on...
