#14  Besides beheading Kiddies + taking their Mommies as Hostages or Concubines-Sex Slaves, the ISIS may be involved in ... ...

* GLOBAL TIMES . SUSPEC TED JIAHDS PHONE CALLS TARGETS UNDERAGE UIGHUR GIRLS, to allegedly serve as "sex slaves", etc. for Islamic State fighters in the Middle East.

Uighur girls were allegedly to be sent to Syria via Indonesia.

#11  Out of curiosity, what does 'conversion' entail? Serious question. Why not just do it and sneak the f*ck out as soon as you got a chance? Don't know about Yazid(?) but I don't think Jesus would mind.

#10  Oh, and put a bag on your wife and daughter, like a good little Jizya

The correct term, Hemingway, is 'dhimmi'.

"Jizya" is the tax that's supposed to be paid by dhimmis. No doubt you used it because it closely resembles another word often used in writing low-grade p0rn (where your prose is more, albeit barely, suited.)

#8  No targets for genocide in Afghanistan? Try the Hazara, or the Shiites of Badakshan.

#7  And all your family and your kids and your neighbors sitting in the pews with you on Sunday. The Pastor and all his family. Just about everybody in the Southern Baptists Convention and the Methodists and the Presbyterians...and all the Catholics and the Vatican if they can reach it. Naturally ALL the Jews. Might have to set up the Ovens and the Gas Camps to handle the majority of Christians.

So its a big job, but Mohammed says "Do it ! " and it has to be done.

What do you suppose the chances are that ISIS has a bright future? Any real chance of handling that sort of work load? And you have to ask yourself, "Are Moslems my friends?"

Know any Moslems? Have any for neighbors? I am sure the good people down at CAIR can answer any questions you may have.
Oh, and put a bag on your wife and daughter, like a good little Jizya.

#5  This is what happens when you leave your entire arsenal of fire power behind to be had for free.

#4  Why is the same Western political class that is begging the Taliban to return to power in Afghanistan so outraged over ISIS' sharia mandated conduct?

How is ISIS materially different from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan or 'liberated' Afghanistan for that matter?

Afghanistan is 99% Muslim so there are no targets for genocide like in Iraq, individuals' religious freedom however is a capital offense.

Even is ISIS is being fought now, in a couple of years the West will be begging ISIS to return to power and accept Western danegeld.

#2  These IS guys would thrive in the collection agency business.

#1  Let our airforce gunnery boys have some target practice at a very low risk - IS has no airforce and the terrain is barren/desolate. A-10's could have a field day.
