Does Anyone here support ISIS?

[Aquitaine]

Half the bloodlust of ISIS is against Israel. Half the bloodlust of all Islamists is Israel. Liberals in general are anti Israel/anti Jewish and pro Islamism. ISIS is their dream come true because in general liberals are weak while ISIS is decisive.

Many liberals on this site defend the Islamic government of Iran which has killed tens of thousands of innocent people, so ISIS is only a step above them.

Just out of curiosity, do you consider me to be one of these "anti-Israel/anti-Jew/pro-ISIS/pro-Islamist Liberals"?

That's lame. You need to read some books or something. Winging it just isn't working for you.

No matter what people say, to you they hate Jews it seems.

Poor Matisyahu. He's not even into the Chabad cult anymore and many Jews are angry at him for it. Lol. I always liked him.

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

I know for a fact that one of those people was trolling for lulz.

Who was it?

This from the person who doesn't know the difference between a Persian and an Arab, Islam and Islamism, a person who calls herself a feminist but defends one of the most brutally misogynistic states in Iran.

And I need to read a book? You need to take an actual course on history and not rant off some crap you read on a poster at some lame rally.

It would be improper to reveal my sources.

Since neither Israel nor the US want Iraq to become a nuclear power. Isn't a Muslim sectarian war in that region good for both?

Keep your enemy fighting amongst themselves....

Probably not, if only because instability doesn't like to stay put, and wars like to spread. Depending on who ends up in charge they could continue the fighting outside their borders.


Oh, and add into that the fact that people are being killed. That part kinda sucks too.

 

[Poeticus]

Believe it or not, there was a member on here that made a thread that was literally ISIS-Apologetics. In this thread and in another thread (though now edited by the poster in question), the member clearly confessed that he was a Cyber Jihadi and approved of the actions of the IS (formerly known as ISIS). The ISIS-Apologetics thread was deleted by the mods & admins. So while one may have, for a fact, chosen yes for giggles, the probability that the second yes vote is probably from this poster is theoretically legitimate.

Oh heck, I'll snitch for the benefit of us all. The pro-ISIS member is Farrukh. He also relays the fact that his thread was deleted by RF staff:

that thread was closed by staff.
many Muslims only know about rumors that are being spread by isis opponents, just like one mentioned in this thread's title.
there are many such fake news everywhere now,
destruction of kabah,
women genital mutilation,
there are many infect.

And even if both of the yes votes are just members trolling, we know for a fact that there is one member on RF that does support ISIS.

I think you mean Iran not Iraq. Don't know where you got the idea that Iraq was even contemplating nuclear weapons.

 

[metis]

Iraq had tried to put together a reactor (Russian source, if my memory is correct), but Israel took it out.

Yep sorry I meant Iran, thanks.

You forget there is oil in Iraq. The corporations the Us fights for need stability to exploit it.

Hence why there is criticism for the US' favouritism of Kurdistan (commercially stable) over Baghdad (commercially unstable) in relation to these military operations to oust ISIS.

Ah, that makes sense. I suppose they can't very well acknowledge that Iraq is a shambles after spending a trillion dollars on "democratizing" it and slaughtering hundreds of thousands of people...

Yeah, saw some articles saying this war was favorable for the Kurds. That was before the Kurds came under attack as well.

After the Kurds were attacked, claims are that is when the US really became involved. Maybe just a coincidence.

In British English, ISIS are would be the prescriptively correct form. However, in American and Australian English, collectives such as governments, corporations and political groups are often treated grammatically, as singular entities; thus why you'll often see the singular form.

Surely British and Australian English are the same? I know there is lots of Americanisation, but Australian English hasn't changed from a branch of British to American English quite yet.

A collective noun can be treated as singular if it unity is being emphasised or plural if the distinctness of its members is being stressed.

If you look at the Middle East/N.Africa tab on their front page, there are five stories linked to. Three are on Israel and none is on ISIS. I have no doubt they have recorded ISIS atrocities, but that is pretty skewed priorities still.
