I doubt that there is enough determination to fight for anything here. The elites are the worst in centuries, only care about their own families and the New World Order, and I do not doubt that they welcome anything that destroy us. They prefer to reign over dumb brainless specialized porks than

No I am objecting to the making of ISIS into the central existential problem that must define our times; they are a largely regional phenomenon (with a certain internet reach resulting from their use of graphic brutality). The planet earth has far more serious existential problems than ISIS.
