Guess not, huh?
5 months? Do you think you've waited long enough?

How does the saying go... "The west thinks in terms of months and years, while Muslims think in terms of generations and decades"

You're showing off your western impatience there DD

You know what they say about assumptions, right? As soon as you write off a terrorist organization... towers come down.

Still trying to figure out how this all works, huh?
So ISIS has decided to lay low until Ferguson blows over?

Lol..hilarious.

You continue to start these stupid threads, proving your ignorance. It's okay with me if you want to show the world you are a fool. Go right ahead.
Oh...it's because they're PATIENT!

I'm lacking a soul...especially because there's no such thing.

When did I rail against Israel for killing anyone? Find the post.

Wait a minute...

I thought you Muslim haters said that Islam is stuck in the 7th Century!

But now you claim that they think in terms of generations and decades?

Which is it?

You should also ask what happened to the kidnapped school girls, the missing airplane etc,etc.
Never accept that what the American media deems important really is important.

ISIS really IS important. These people are pretty smart. Like the Cylons, they have a plan. Unlike the Cylons, their plan is one of accomplishment. Got any idea how much money they are making from their oil operations?

IMHO, we are going to have to confront them sooner or later ... .hopefully before they open a suicide bombing campaign here in the US of A

They're like global warming, wait a minute, that's global climate change now. It ebbs and flows, then when that doesn't work, they change the name of the movement. Maybe the drone strikes have done their job and they don't exist anymore. Could be the media is sitting on ISIS stories for right now, until time that a boogeyman is needed to misdirect attention somewhere else. Or better yet, maybe I'm just rambling about nothing.

Well, every week there is a different story about how many heads they have chopped off. Gee whiz, they are being bad enough already.
