ISIL, ISIS, Daesh discussion thread.


Does anyone know how many children this guy had? Don't these types have several wives and dozens of kids?

Surely they have to make sure they kill the children too, because then they're simply unleashing 15 angrier, younger, smarter, more hellbent and stronger versions of one big old dead terrorist. And I believe this is partly the reason terror has simply become more widespread since the War on Terror started over a decade ago.

Majority of Iraq and Syria? Not much for not very long.
Their strongholds of raqqah and mosul? Given their defences, I think they may be there a while.

ISIS's isn't really geared up for a direct confrontation (though retaking raqqah, etc. will probably be very very messy) - they've survived largely by being mobile with fluid logistics, etc. utilising the old long range desert patrol type tactics - they wouldn't last "that long" in a hard confrontation with nowhere to run.
 
Not raqqah and mosul, given their numbers and defenses there. They don't have to engage in a direct confrontation.
 
Seemed to have been operating alone which is a bit weird I thought they usually operated them in pairs out there so one can cover the other when manoeuvring.
 
This could end up getting really bad... Really quickly.

How much more do we think the French are going to put up with this? Scenes of celebration in some parts of Paris tonight. Same as after the theatre attack...

hold on guys!

stop right now!

we don't even know who the perpetrator is yet - but we need to think of who the real victims will inevitably be!

the innocent muslims who may have their feelings hurt by hypothetical mean things said on twitter ;_;

the only lesson this tragedy can tell us is that we need to do more to be more considerate and understanding of muslims and islamic culture in europe, so disenfranchised youth are not forced down the path of extremism as a reaction to european intolerance and bigotry!

i propose a march tomorrow against islamophobia, racism, and white privilege!

only that will be a fitting way to heal the psychological wounds of the true victims, and remind everyone of who is really responsible for this problem - privileged white men.
