Chicago Muslim teen pleads guilty to trying to join the Islamic State
“After Khan’s arraignment in January, his mother, Zarine Khan, delivered a tearful but stern message accusing ISIS recruiters of ‘the brainwashing and recruiting of children through the use of social media and the Internet.’ ‘Leave our children alone!’ she cried.” How hearteningly moderate.

“Most local imams in Dagestan shun radical views, but they have found it hard to counter the appeal of radical ideas promoted by the Islamic State.

Islamic State schools ban math, music, philosophy, history, French and geography as incompatible with Islam
They are following in the illustrious footsteps of the caliph Umar, who is supposed to have said when ordering the ancient, fabled library of Alexandria to be burned: “If the books agree with the Qur’an, they are superfluous.
