40. ISIS is vicious group, their leaders has to sell whatever to the recruits to keep the group going.

They should not be ignored, I doubt they would be able to take Europe because action would be taken to halt them. For those who thinks this group is just going to dry up and go away, no, they have nothing to lose, part of their current bounties has been women and children of Yazidi, they are collected for sexual abuse of their recruits. We can bury ourselves into thinking no action will take care of this problem or we can face reality and cull this group. Will there be others, yes, history continues to occur over and over.

There's a better chance of me winning the Lottery than ISIS conquering Europe. hobbit709 Dec 2014 #1

The "Christian" far-right is a much bigger, more immediate threat to a liberal Europe. Of course, pampango Dec 2014 #12
So it's OK to bash the Christian far-right but not the Muslim far-right? oberliner Dec 2014 #14
You can bash both of them but one is a bigger threat than the other. n/t pampango Dec 2014 #19
