In a section entitled: “How the soldiers of Iblis [the devil] keep women from paradise”, the authors take aim at the western lifestyle that encourages both men and women to gain an education and employment. The manifesto denounces the wearing of fashionable clothes and piercings, concluding: “This urbanisation, modernity and fashion is presented by Iiblis [the devil] in fashion shops and beauty salons.”
Do you think that "Uneducated, barefoot, pregnant, and chained to the stove" would sum it up?

It makes you awesome.
All cultures are equally valid.

Look at how badly we offend and outrage them...
That's right, can't be judgmental.

bores.
Rich Lowrey, PoliticoIt became a trope that Bush was just like his enemies in his fearsome certitude. Bush critic Ron Suskind approvingly quoted commentator Bruce Bartlett, who unburdened himself of this deep thought: Bush believes the Islamic radicals “can’t be persuaded, that they’re extremists, driven by a dark vision. He understands them, because he’s just like them.”
University of Chicago professor Bruce Lincoln wrote of Bush and Osama bin Laden, “Both men constructed a Manichaean struggle, where Sons of Light confront Sons of Darkness, and all must enlist on one side or another, without possibility of neutrality, hesitation, or middle ground.”
Yeah, they were exactly the same except that one unhesitatingly ordered the hijacking of civilian aircraft to crash into skyscrapers, and the other unhesitatingly described that act of mass murder as evil.
What is it about the word “evil” that so offends the left?
It smacks of a religious worldview that makes secularists uncomfortable. It sets up a natural opposition between good and evil — what experts dissecting Bush called a “binary discourse” — that is altogether too confident in our own virtue for the left. It doesn’t necessarily entail any particular policy response, but it tilts toward a total commitment to fighting the enemy, since a campaign to degrade evil feels inherently inadequate.

We're on topic, if a wee bit sarcastic.
In a very real sense of the word ISIS may be accomplishing that which those of us who have been critical of Islam were never able to do. They are beginning to inflame the followers of a more moderate bent to action. They are not only displaying their barbarity, they are publishing their doctrines supporting said barbarity for all the world to see. No longer can the apologists hide behind the notion that these are just a few 'radicals' and not representative of the whole of Islam. And while not representative of the whole of Islam, it is patently obvious that they are a large organization with a significant following.
The more doctrines they publish the better as far as I'm concerned. They are forcing the moderate Muslims to respond, to choose sides.

I would be ISIS's worst nightmare. Yes, I would.

I'll do you a favor.
I'm out. You can go cackle with your buddy Throb who is more than happy to parrot back at you only what you want to hear.
