If the sadists of ISIS are seeking — with their mass executions, child rapes, immolations, and beheadings of Christians — to stampede us into a new war in the Middle East, they are succeeding. Repeatedly snapping the blood-red cape of terrorist atrocities in our faces has the Yankee bull snorting, pawing the ground, ready to charge again. "Nearly three-quarters of Republicans now favor sending ground troops into combat against the Islamic State," says a CBS News poll. The poll was cited in a New York Times story about how the voice of the hawk is ascendant again in the GOP....

Meanwhile, Assad, as well as non-ISIS extremists, slice and dice humans into tiny bits, but don't film it or ritualize it.

Media is a powerful thing.

Media is a powerful thing. Explains how so many emo's got so worked up over Abu Graib when the NYTimes put in on the front pages 30 days in a row.

I have heard some alarming over-reactions to ISIL, but on the other hand I am wondering what to do about the irreparable damage to archeological sites. The Taliban and ISIL follow a common religious view that nothing existed prior to their religion, and if any evidence contradicts the religion, then the evidence must be destroyed and/or suppressed. As the Taliban destroyed Buddhist statues in Afghanistan, ISIL morons are destroying ancient artifacts in Iraq. The idea is to create terra nova, a land with no history, so ISIL can say life was never better. Since most Muslim countries were better off before Islam, they are particularly vulnerable to religious revision of history.
