Neither does bringing Syrians, many of whom sympathize with Islamic terrorists, into our country. And aiding the Muslim Brotherhood parent organization of ISIS does not play into the Islamic group\u2019s hands.<\/p>\n<p>However if you use the words \u201cIslamic terrorism\u201d or even milder derivatives such as \u201cradical Islamic terrorism\u201d, you are playing into the hands of ISIS. If you call for closer law enforcement scrutiny of Muslim areas before they turn into Molenbeek style no-go zones or suggest ending the stream of new immigrant recruits to ISIS in San Bernardino, Paris or Brussels, you are also playing into the hands of ISIS.<\/p>\n<p>And if you carpet bomb ISIS, destroy its headquarters and training camps, you\u2019re just playing into its hands. According to Obama and his experts, who have wrecked the Middle East, what ISIS fears most is that we\u2019ll ignore it and let it go about its business. And what it wants most is for us to utterly destroy it. Or as Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau said, &#8220;If you kill your enemies, they win.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But maybe if you surrender to them, then you win.<\/p>\n<p>Tens of thousands of Muslim refugees make us safer. But using the words \u201cMuslim terrorism\u201d endangers us. The more Muslims we bring to America, the faster we\u2019ll beat ISIS. As long as we don\u2019t call it the Islamic State or ISIS or ISIL, but follow Secretary of State John Kerry\u2019s lead in calling it Daesh.<\/p>\n<p>Because terrorism has no religion. Even when it\u2019s shouting, \u201cAllahu Akbar\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daniel Greenfield rounds up the key issues with all of the traditional ways to &#8220;fight&#8221; ISIS: If you\u2019re keeping score, freeing Islamic terrorists from Gitmo does not play into the hands of ISIS.
