A Brief Guide to the Islamic State
Even though ISIS talk seems to have quieted down these days I came across a pretty interesting read for anyone interested in how the situation is evolving in the Middle East.
Apparently ISIS published a document back in May to illustrate and showcase what the recently found (June 29th 2014 according to the guide) Islamic State has to offer.
It was written by one Abu Rumaysah al-Britani an islamic soldier out of our beloved UK.
The guide contains information pertaining food, climate, transportation, etc... of the newly found state, only part missing is a section on the local talent
An excerpt on the weather:
Quote:... as it stands the Caliphate offers an exquisite Mediterranean climate that has all the makings of a plush holiday resort. Whether it is the sandy ruggedness of Barakah or the green hilly plains of Halab, wherever you are, I guarantee you will find the scenery truly breath-taking.
and ice-cream
Quote:luffy velvety, and sweet. If you want to treat yourself then indulge in this full fat delight all for less than 30 pence.
Quote:If nothing here tickles your taste buds then remember we have only scratched the surface; as more Muslims flock to the Caliphate from Europe, Asia, the Caribbean Islands and elsewhere you can be sure to find your mouth watering morsels somewhere. I cannot help but think that in the near future we will be eating curries and chow meins on the streets of Raqqah and Mosul.
Here is what he writes about the people: Quote:If you thought London or New York was cosmopolitan then wait until you step foot in the Islamic State, because it screams diversity. In my short time here I have met people from absolutely every walk of life, proof that the Caliphate’s pulling power is strong and tenacious. The country has also become a magnet for talent. It has been successful in recruiting skilled professionals that are crucial for state building. Scholars, judges, preachers, soldiers, doctors, data analysts, telecommunication experts, economists, mechanics, chefs, teachers, civil engineers etc. are just some examples that I can rattle off the top of my head, and are also real life examples of people I have physically met.
The guide also features a closing chapter titled "Capitalism is Dead", which was quite underwhelming to be honest, but I'm not gonna spoil the read.
All in all pretty interesting, too bad they are destroying every and each historical site and museum in the cities they grab or it would almost make an interesting destination if ever the region stabilizes in the future.
Here is the link to the document.

There they can possibly be contained. Hopefully the Islamic State attracts more to their Caliphate, yes, good riddance!
Yes... much easier when they're all in one spot...

RE: A Brief Guide to the Islamic State
Quote:"I cannot see a Baltimore riot springing up here anytime soon and that is a dead certainty, not because those in charge will deal with matters with an iron fist, but because there is no blur between right and wrong. What I mean by this is that citizens are not hypocritically led to believe that all cultures can coexist, and then have this belief torn apart by the bigoted reality on the ground."
I hate to say this, but when it comes to gender roles and multiculturalism, the Islamic State is at least a step closer to sanity and normalcy than the godless, homosexual Communists running the U.S. and Europe. Men and women who join ISIS are suicidal maniacs, but even so, much of their criticism of Western culture is accurate and grounded in reality.

It's easy to criticize a society. It's much more difficult to offer a practical alternative.

True, and it speaks volumes about the differences between both cultures. Even ISIS can see the failures of egalitarianism, but also even mired in this stupidity the West towers above everywhere else due to the struggles of ancestors passed.
