[DAWN] YOU might think that being a press officer of the murderous Moslem Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group at the moment would be a distinctly demoralising experience. The days of rapid territorial advances winning shocked headlines around the globe are over. And with the Iraqi and Syrian government forces advancing in both djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
and northern Syria, there is from IS’s point of view, lots of bad news. But the jihadists who fight by the keyboard rather than the sword might see things rather differently. Because, even if they are on the back foot in key battlegrounds, each week brings news from all over the world that they can disseminate.

#6  I would have thought we would have won that point in late 2001.

We lost it with the 'kinder gentler' sort of war strategy.

#5  The saudi bought influence and educated islamist intellectuals made alliance with the left and have successfully controlled the universities and media using our own pressure points of "muh religious freedom" and "multicultural respect"

The politicians have bought into this.

The enemy is academia and the media

The enemy is collecting false statistics of islamofauxbia and is hiding and censoring islamist attacks (melbourne car attack, louvre knife attack) by reporting only the nationality of the attacker and deleting the part where witnesses say they heard him yell "allahu akhbar" and that it was a jihad attack

They are killing for their religion

It's not who votes that counts, it's who counts the votes.

If you can believe that there are no psychological differences between men and women, or what 20 point IQ differences don't matter - you can believe in anything.

#2  They were all inspired by ISLAM.

Instead, roughly half of our country has consistently demonstrated that they have been so thoroughly indoctrinated that allegiance to our country first and foremost is no longer something they believe in.

#1  Lone wolf attacks that "may or may not have been inspired by IS"

Pure propaganda
