I don't think the point is to minimze the horrific nature of ISIS, its to counter the people who use ISIS to tar 1/3 of the planet's population as irredeemably sub-human. Which is a sadly prevalent thread in immigrant debates.

Yeah, people use ISIS but intentionally ignore Rojava — the secular feminist region in Syria which has been the most effective force beating ISIS. (

It's all politics. Many don't want people to learn from each other and improve.
