They're basically modern-day Nazis. They think their group is the best and want to kill everyone else and gain as much territory as possible.

Who do you think is carrying the weight when it comes to fighting ISIS, they sure as hell ain't Christians, rather they are Muslim Iraqis, Syrians, and Kurds.

They target Muslims equally if not worse than Christians. Reason being, they aren't pro-Islam. They're pro-Wahhabi, a deranged cult that passes itself off as Islam.

They have the most hatred for Shia Muslims in particular.

As for those asking why don't Muslims fight them...many are. But they often die for it, and you never know. Also, of the ones who are vocal about it, thank American media for not spoonfeeding you that fact.

And finally, most of them are simply trying to keep themselves and their families safe. They just want to live their lives and avoid danger. And can they be blamed for that? Should African-Americans be held accountable for crime in Detroit? Should they all be expected to fly over there and play vigilante cop?

Only a minute percentage of Americans are murderers, most of the rest of us are quite against murder, but murder still happens regardless. Even in as powerful and developed a country as the US.

So you expect Muslims scattered in completely different parts of the world, often with less resources than the average American has, to easily lasso in the all nutjobs?

Good luck with that.

Pure and simple, these ISIS people are animals with zero concern for human life whatsoever. They will strap bombs onto women and children and abduct young kids to brainwash and train in their sick ways.

That whole horrible part of the world needs to be turned into one very flat, radioactive parking lot if the rest of us are to survive.

They could have kept their kids out of that violent ideology passing itself off as a religion in the first place. Oh wait, no, they couldn't because in certain parts of the world that sort of apostasy means death.

I don't hate Muslims, but I hate Islam.

I've done my research, and it's a brutal cult. Good people are doing bad things because of this cult.
