Middle East studies expert Dr. David Bukay of the University of Haifa ridicules intelligence experts trying to downplay the danger posed by the extremist group Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS), which has captured large swathes of Iraq and Syria in recent months.
Speaking to Arutz Sheva, Bukay explained "today they have nearly 20,000 fighters; it's a contagious phenomenon, they cast fear and dread and many join them."
"There's no clear strategy against them," added Bukay, noting on US President Barack Obama's statements last Thursday that he has "no strategy" to combat IS in Syria.
"Today they're already waving their flags in Arab villages in Israel, in Umm al-Fahm and Saknin. The new amendment against waving Hamas and IS flags is ludicrous, I'd like to see the attorney general fight them," commented the Middle East expert.
Bukay argued that the world must understand the war today must not be against this or that terror group, but against extremist Islam as an ideology.
"Islam is an existential threat, and if in the past they declared war on the Nazis and afterwards on Communism, today they must declare war on Islam and not necessarily on terror. You're fighting an ideology here that speaks about conquering the world and killing infidels, that's a religious war by all means," argued the expert.

Hitler said that terror would always succeed unless countered by equal or greater terror.
Are we ready yet to get our hands really dirty?
Right on.
Totally right, there are lots of differences, the NAZIs didn’t want to take us back to the stone age technologically. Ok, one difference.
However that “pet” goat line? That’s not a pet, that’s his girlfriend.
Yup.
Just about what I had in mind.
Fight Islam like its a murderous death cult fixated on our total destruction.
Stop Jihad now by killing all islamics starting at Mecca and working outwards.
“That’s not a pet, that’s his girlfriend.”
And already contaminated merely by association.
Extirpation and deracination are the only sure means of eliminating this evil from the planet Earth. That may mean the total desanctification of every mosque and so-called “holy site” in the entire world.
There are very few practicing Druids left anywhere today. Gone away too is the cult of Huitzilopochtli, the state religion of the Aztecs.
There are plenty of Black Jack Pershings out there.
But you’re forgetting Black Jack didn’t have all manner of 19th Amendment Proxies he had to answer to.
“Hitler said that terror would always succeed unless countered by equal or greater terror.
Are we ready yet to get our hands really dirty?”
I have no problem killing roaches and rats. Islam is a
political ideology, not a religion. The problem is that
they are only one of three fronts of the coup in America.
The other two are the liberal/communists and the latinoid
invasion on our southern border.
And what about the upcoming fight at home?
We forget that we fought the Nazis on a different continent and they wore uniforms — the fight against our domestic muzzies will be right in our backyards.
Something this country has never experienced.
Kill them like socialists, eh?
Is that ol Vlad?
The desire for simplistic solutions to complex problems has spawned several widely-circulated messages of late which seek to transform a fight against terrorism to the easily-manageable level of a horror film or a comic strip. Today’s popular notion is the concept that a pig is to a Muslim as a crucifix is to a vampire—simply arm yourself with a porker, and you can use it to render even the most fanatical terrorist helpless, sending him cowering in fear lest he come into contact with anything porcine. Such notions reduce an extremely widespread and diverse religion—and the people who follow it—to a monolithic entity with a single set of beliefs and rules to which everyone adheres. …Tip for Snopes: The “Kumbaya” approach has led to today’s mess. So far, the “Islamic world” continues to behave in a quite monolithic manner—even Han Chinese Muslims are arming themselves and joining ISIS.
