re: For those interested, a TL, DR on ISIS

actually, the governance that has ruled the land is exactly why it has risen to prominence. The Koran calls for an Islamic government, governed in strict accordance to Islamic law. ISIS is doing precisely that. They are establishing a government, or a caliphate, based specifically on the archaic teachings of the Koran.
EDIT: Whether their brand of Islam is good or evil is open to interpretation. You and I probably both agree. These fools are batshit crazy, and are certainly evil, but to someone deeply embedded and involved with ISIS, it is completely logical and the purest form of their faith. They are no different than that of a crazy offshoot of Christianity, well except they lop people's heads off...

I respect that you may be a secular expert on Isis. But you'll be frustrated with developments until you take the Matrix view of what's going on. There is no spoon.
When Iran nukes Saudi Arabia, you heard it here first.

Please cite the atrocities committed in modern times in the name of Christianity that justifies the moral equivalency inherent in your statement.
