Check out this article in Atlantic Mag.

They are leftists and interestingly spend a lot of time Jeb Bush bashing. They just can’t stand him being as much like them as he is...

Their recent take on ISIS:

I guess Obama didn’t read it, or if he did, what difference does it make?

The best paragraph from The Atlantic article-—

“The reality is that the Islamic State is Islamic. Very Islamic. Yes, it has attracted psychopaths and adventure seekers, drawn largely from the disaffected populations of the Middle East and Europe. But the religion preached by its most ardent followers derives from coherent and even learned interpretations of Islam.”


That says it all.

That was an amazing piece in the Atlantic... Our only hope defeating the monster that is Islam is to understand ... and that article goes a long way to make that understanding possible...
