It’s not just ISIS, it’s ANY Islam. Americans are ignorant, do not know what the Koran teaches, and are so focused on earning more money than they need and on being entertained. Modern day Babylon partying while the Medes and Persians divert the river and prepare to march through the river gates.

Actually half the population is barely literate and dependent on government and doesn’t care about anything except their government checks, sex, reality television, and sports. Unless the barbarians are at the gates, threatening to cut off the gravy, they don’t care about what is happening in the rest of the world.
The other half of the population is burned out working to support the non producers. Unless the barbarians are at the gate threatening their lives they don’t have the time or energy to care.
One advantage of our geographic location, is our population is not at risk from land based armies and fighting in other parts of the world. As long as airliners aren’t crashing into buildings, or being blown from the skies, most Americans feel safe from foreign threats.
As to the few who do care, they have no political power. Obama is going to do nothing about Islamic terrorists in general, or Isis specifically. The Republican Congress is not going to fight Obama. Hence, even if you care, why spend time and energy tilting at windmills?
I mentioned on FR a couple of weeks ago a dinner conversation with family and friends wherein when I mentioned the problem in Britain with the musloids everyone mumbled something and put their face down in their plates. Almost in sync. The entire conversation revolved around entertainment. TV shows, movies, celebrities. I remember, even as a kid, sitting around the dinner table talking about what was going on in the world. Then again, my Dad was a news junkie and imbued in me a love of history. Unfortunately I do believe we have become far more ignorant as a society.
