ISIS

[Olivia Bauer]

I would imagine they didn't get their name from Archer.

For those that don't know ISIS is a terrorist group that recently emerged. They are hell bent on killing every non-muslim in the middle east. They have been beheading Christians and burying women and children alive for their faiths.

In other words, they're inhuman monsters.

So a terrorist group is using the name of a cheezy '70's kid show?

If they start calling themselves Electra Woman and Dyna Girl-the world is in deep s**t.

It's an acronym for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.

They're all over the news, so I don't think so.

Does anyone know what the name of that flag is?
I heard it's not the ISIS flag, but some other kind of Islamic flag that's getting a bad rep, kinda like the St Andrew's Cross after the Dixiecrats commandeered it...

Most Muslims are GREAT folks-its just extremist nuts like this that f**k it up for all. It would be like comparing Christians to Jim Jones. Not the same ball park.

I heard about a year back the FSA were having scraps with them but didn't really at that time understand the severity of the tactics the islamic state use to run their territory. "Non-muslim tax" and all that nazi nonsense. It really is full 1984 creepy in IS controlled places right now.

I wish more people in the west would read the Koran and be better informed about what motivates faithful Moslems to act as they do. Then maybe the "religion of peace" myth might be a little harder to swallow. Because of its central message of world domination by any means necessary, Islam can't be compared to other religions. Neither Sikhs nor Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Jains, Zoroastrians, Baha'i, Wiccans, Christians, or any animists I know of are directed to violent conquest as Moslems are. Groups like ISIS, while extreme, are faithful to Islam. Read the Koran. There are plenty of free apps if you can't find a physical copy. If you value tolerance, peace, human equality, free expression, democracy, universal education, the protection of children from sexual predation, as well as freedom of and from religion, you just may be shocked at what Mohammad directed his followers to do.

I get what you are saying ER but I think it is possible to be compared, there are plenty of christians that are OK with homosexuality for example despite what the bible says.

Im an atheist.I dont give a flying f**k about their religion. I KNOW they are murdering scumbags. f**k THEM. What Obama is doing-bombing them-is right. I would think you Republicans would be on his side.

Of course-with politics-it aint about right-its about who has money funding. Right?

I agree, these are nutjobs, criminals and terrorists.  The guy/girl who runs the market,works in the next cube, or is your HR person and happens to be Muslim is NOT one of these.  

Its no different from radical clinic bombers and any Christians you may meet.  Different animals.

Its comparable to the treatment of Japanese in WW2-not as harsh-but when you see a guy with a turbin-you freak out. Its a differnt world-but it isnt.  Its scary.
