As two of the people who know the most about this situation here, we have decided to do an AMA to set some people on straight on what they think they know. From threads where people say the cartels could beat them, to comparing them to Hitlers decision to invade the Soviet Union, to people thinking they will attack the homeland in two weeks, there is a lot of misinformation roaming around these parts.
We would like to answer any questions you have about ISIS, the crisis in Iraq or the war in Syria or anything related to these topics at hand.
So ask us anything

3 RepliesEdited by Sparty 017: 9/8/2014 5:50:05 AMWhat is the goal of Isis?/Nvm I should read all the other questions first. xD How does the goal of a world wide caliphate relate to their actual strategy? Surely they know they are on the path to destruction. What actual tangible goals can they reach and do they strive for? And what will their destruction accomplish for them and their goal?
