We do. We keep saying it, but no one wants to listen. The question starts w a false premise: no one is suddenly inspired to join ISIS. This indoctrination starts from birth. The idea that Islam will rule the world. A Caliphate will rise and when it does, we must join the fight

We’re told that all non-believers are the enemy and they must be killed. This is a common theme in mosques and madrasas across the world. Joining ISIS is the punctuation at the end of a very long sentence. It’s a long, slow process and we’e only looking at the conclusion

The father of one of the #BethnalGreen girls stood shoulder to shoulder w Anjem Chaudhry and Lee Rigsby’s killer at extremist rallies...where he took his 13 yr old daughter. Rallies where they screamed about violence to the West and burned flags. This is what she was taught.

#NotAll Muslims are taught this, of course. But a significant percentage are. And of that percentage, some will respond by joining ISIS and other terrorist groups. And when you’re talking about 1.6 billion, any percentage, even 1%, is way too high.

PS: Not sure what the current obsession w women is. Boys and girls are indoctrinated. Boys and girls make the decision to join terrorist organizations. Why assume the boys are going to Syria of their own volition, but the girls are victims? Thats called sexism.
