The Jordanian queen called on the international community to shift their focus away from the religious claims of the militant organization because doing so gives them false legitimacy. She said Islamic State seeks to be associated with Islam in order to give their acts legitimacy and push forward the organization’s recruiting effort.
“They have nothing to do with faith and everything to do with fanaticism,” she told the Huffington Post.
The 44-year-old wife of King Abdullah suggested that the war against Islamic State should be forged by Muslims and Arabs with the international community in a supporting role, as opposed to the current US-led coalition status-quo characterized by air strikes on Islamic State targets.
What did the Queen say? As someone who has seen her neighboring countries become torn apart from Muslim extremists, in this case ISIS, she asserts said group are "crazy people" trying to hold back the region from reaching modernity. Maybe President Obama can finally say aloud, to "come out of the closet" and finally admit, that ISIS poses a serious threat to the world. It's no longer "that region's problem."
I'll take Queen Rania's word over pacifists, cowards and leftists that refuse to acknowledge the obvious truth: ISIS is messed up and should be on the US' top priority for "Stuff to Bomb + Shoot."
