No, the truth is simple, the media doesn't cover it because no one cares. 10,000 people could die in Iraq and people wouldn't care. There's no reason to sweep it under the rug or try to excuse it. Closer to home? Yeah because we don't see people in Lebanon as being equal to us. They are more expendable. And thats' why we can drop bombs on Iraq and let 200k civilians die in a dumb pointless war.
Surprisingly interesting read from CRACKED magazine: http://www.cracked.com/blog/isis-wants-us-to-invade-7-facts-revealed-by-their-magazine_p2/ This guy has read a bunch of ISIS-produced glossy mags, and he gives 7 take-home messages that I will summarize for you here. 7. The magazine is super-slick, like Cosmo for the death cult. 6. They are shockingly honest about being terrorists and what type of carnage awaits their recruits. 5. They are very media savvy. 4. They REALLY do want us to send an army so that Allah can unleash the foretold apocalypse. 3. ISIS is really stressed about money and recruiting competent non-warrior/psychopaths (e.g. doctors and plumbers and that kind of crap) 2. The US is one of the most reliable sources for ISIS weaponry 1. We have no clue to understanding ISIS, especially from our own crappy media. Some of these are not very surprising if you've been reading the better coverage, but it's an interesting read with a lot of images from the ISIS mag. (Including thankfully spoilered gruesome images.) Finally, if nothing else, read the captions for the very dark humor. It is CRACKED, after all. The best way to fight them, if you ask me (and why would you?), would be: A. containment. Don't let them expand to further territory or resources. B. economics. starve them out through every means possible. Looting old Iraqi banks will only go so far. C. recruits. be very tactical about fighting their recruiting. especially for talented, non-psychopaths (e.g. doctors).
"Ahmed, I am sorry. But the only way to treat your ear infection is, you guessed it right? To cut your head off."
Ban Islam. Destroy every record of Quran. re write the Quran for so called moderate Muslims, leaving out all the 'Kill The Infidel' parts. Kill every terrorist & their families. Kill everyone who supports terrorists. Start over.
Crazy people can't be defeated. There will always be crazy people doing crazy things. Just protect yourself and thats it.
