Islamic State is deliberately trying to provoke outrage. [View all]

The most recent incident, where a Jordanian pilot was burned alive, is an example of their increasing brutality. Jordan has promised to respond by executing all ISIS prisoners. That will do nothing, however, to force ISIS to stop its activities. Rather, it will inflame them further.

Islamic State does not care. It will use that as a reason to ramp up its atrocities even further. Fanning flames is what this organization is all about. Attracting more psychopathic adherents is their goal. They will not mourn the ISIS prisoners who are executed. They do not care about those prisoners at all. They are psychopaths, pure and simple.

This is an example of a fanatical movement that has no soul or any compassion. Reprisals will not work, but will simply inflame these fanatics even further. The only solution for ISIS will come when their locations are discovered and their leadership is wiped out, along with whatever psychopaths that leadership has surrounded itself with. Sadly, it will take extreme violence targeting this group to end their insanity.

I have no doubt that efforts are underway to discover where these people are located. When that is discovered, expect massive attacks against them, and many collateral deaths, since this murderous band will have located itself where there are many innocents close by.
