Probably not,....uneconomical.

The US arms industry and national infrastructure would collapse, followed by a recession until the "new order" clicks in.

By then, the POTUS will be Chinese.

What Muslim quarters have you heard sympathizing with IS?

Syria, Iraq, wherever IS has dominated.

Any day at all you can read about allawallas being happy with IS and militant Islam.

Not the majority, but a sizeable hunk of Islamic believers.

IS only believes in controlling people and telling them how to live. Murder is just another tool to them.

Having said that, it would take a huge set of cajones to disagree with some rag head mullah in an IS controlled area. IS would not hesitate to execute any dissenter, along with the whole family. Faced with those realities, a lot of people would drink the Kool aide and spout the party line.

Sorta like N. Korea when fat boy makes a speech and the audience goes hysterical, each trying to out do the other with applause and cheers. You don't want to be the one seen as not buying in to the joys of what ever the Dear Leader is selling...

Not as long as large companies are making huge profits. The American public is starting to get a little war weary, much like what happened during the Vietnam Conflict. The country was close to revolution and the same will need to happen again before the politicians call for a halt to more hostility.

I, for one, vote for revolution.

Report in the Daily Mail.

So someone in IS has a soul and feelings?

^I read once that M.E. public execution and mutilation victims are given a big shot of heroin / morphine before the sentence is carried out. There was a picture of a guy having his hands cut off, but with a beatific radiant smile on his face. Disturbing shit.

Let's be clear, it's on infowars but not infowars claiming it's fake.

Certainly prevents someone in full control of their faculties from screaming blue murder and profaning Allah and Muhammad as the cameras start to roll. Don't think compassion figures big in their script.

^ Fair point, Moog. Someone screaming and writhing in agony would be much more horrifying to watch. It makes me wonder about the purpose of the videos. Clearly not to horrify - or not to horrify too much. Some have suggested the videos are aimed at recruitment. I'm not convinced of that at this time.

Look at any vids of human immolation, by self or otherwise, necklacing etc, the victim doesn't resist and struggle much, as a general rule.

You know, I think I'll pass.


What's necklacing?

^ Hanging a car tyre around a victim's neck then setting it alight,....S Africa.

Ah right. Seth Efka.

Think I'll skip looking up those videos too.

Hold on, the tyre rubber neck bracelet was done in the name of freedom.

I thought diamonds were a girl's best friend...

Or the racing driving rolling around frantically!
