It is a recruiting video, subtitled in English.

I wish everyone commenting on the crisis in Iraq and Syria would watch it first, so they can understand the goals and methods of ISIL.

I've read extensively, from different perspectives, and watched the VICE videos.

Why do you want to see Americans and Germans and Brits (and Indonesians and Sudanese and so forth) killing hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women, and children over a difference of opinion in religion?

See how that works?

(BTW did you watch the video?)

a lot of killing throughout history and thats part of why I'm a non religious person today. That and there is no way that there is a spirit somewhere watching over me or you or them or whoever. Some people need the constraints of religion or the discipline of it but thats not me and I'm fine with that as long as they keep their religion off me.
No I didn't watch the video and probable won't as I'm an old man who is trying to forget war.
I just wanted to comment on the 'differences in opinion of religion, wars and killing part.'
