Fr. Samir considers the caliph's message an appeal to young Muslims who are committed to their religion, and said it “will convince many Muslim traditionalists to become Salafis and fight.”

“Faced with such call to arms, what can be done?” the priest asked. Amid the Islamic State's war “a military fight might be necessary, but it will not be decisive.”

“Military actions will reduce the violence, shed less blood, push back IS, but the movement will continue because it is part of Islam.”

Fr. Samir wrote that “the only solution is a radical reform to the internal reading of Islamic history.”

That damned Islamophobic racist bigoted atheist! Oh wait, he's a Catholic priest? Well how about that.
