The longer we try to pretend there is no common link, the more we will be "surprised" and the more people will die.
One attacks at military base two attack a cartoon contest one along with his wife attacks his coworkers and this guy a gay bar other than being ISIS inspired what is the common link?
Radical Islam.
Wouldn't radical Islam and ISIS be pretty much the same thing?
That depends who is defining it. When you say.......... Radical Islam means all Islamics are radicals. Total of 2 billions world wide which includes 202 millions Indonesians and 172 millions Indians etc. etc. etc.......... According to history Muslims arrived here in large number since 1878.
That said. According to Trump and his cult followers all 2 billions Muslims belong to RADICAL ISLAM thus belong to ISIS. That is orgasmistically dumb and stupid.
There are approximately 100 to 120k ISIS but it's not 2 billions.
Thank you God that there are decent Americans and countries that do NOT think like Trump and his cult followers.
This is from wiki:
Between 1878 and 1924, Muslim immigrants from the Middle East, particularly from Syria and Lebanon, arrived in large numbers, with many settling in Ohio, Michigan, Iowa and even the Dakotas. Like most other migrants they were seeking greater economic opportunity than in their homeland and often worked as manual laborers. One of the first big employers of Muslims and blacks was the Ford Company—these were often the only people willing to work in the hot, difficult conditions of the factories.
