illegitimizing IS as non-islamic will prove to be a catastrophic strategic blunder.
Simply because IS doesn't represent 98% of muslims does not mean they are not motivated by Muslim faith and have a religious goal as the outcome, all based on their interpretation of the Torah.
Not realizing that means military strategy has not been effective, as we all already know, and it will continue to be ineffective.
Then, here's what will happen: we'll put boots on the ground there, an American soldier will be taken hostage, put in a cage, set of fire and the video uploaded to YouTube.
Then we will have what IS wants- an all out religious war.
The only solution here is to realize IS is religious in their violence and terror and goals and as a matter of consequence, that means the USA can NOT engage.
