ISIS' future

Reader comment on item: Riyadh More 'Interested in Helping Rebels Than Fighting Daesh' in Syria

Submitted by David Olds (United States), Feb 8, 2016 at 17:52

In my reading I'm beginning to get the sense that ISIS and islamism are making progress in Africa, north and sub Saharan. I'm no expert but a lot of the stories I read combine to give the same feeling I got in reading Churchill's Gathering Storm about pre-WWII. A steady step by step series of events as if the were a malignant spritual force and intelligence behind it. I'm you are not a Christian this sounds like a kooky conspiracy theory. If you are a Christian you are pretty much forced to believe in a "warfare in the heavenly places". It just seem like every so often I read a story and things are worse than I thought in regards to the Islamist movement. Or maybe it's my senile dystopian feeling about the future. Chuckle.
