Anyone have information on how ISIS recruits? Why are people attracted to this ideology/religion other than by coercion?

It is more than edgy faggots.

Muslims embrace wahhabism and salafism.

wahhabism= Daesh/ISIS and Saudi arabia.
salafism = Fsa/Al-nusra and qatar & kuwait.

Because of the promise of having sex with 72 children after death.

I saw an MSNBC documentary on this called "Isis and the internet"

Basically they try to talk to retards who are lost in life. Basically the type of people who would be drawn to scientology or /r9k/ and try to tell them how special they are and how great they can be.

Then they cherrypick some quotes from the quaran to justify their hate.

Then they tell you how great death will be.

ISIS is basically a death cult, they worship death, they WANT to die in a dronestrike. The see killing of innocent people as liberation of the soul of the dead. They are actually convinced of this. Add in hate of the west, and you have a toxic mixture.

I feel like most of pol is just one step away from this

Isnt there two types? They get real mercs from central asia, and crazy edgy retards that broke down in western ghettos from our degenerate western culture.

Read Stephen Coughlin's Catastrophic Failure.
Protip: Wahhab was a heretic and is regarded as a well-ibtentioned failure by Muslims. The same Muslims who "educate" us dhimmis about how it's all Wahhab's doing. The Hanbali school of jurisprudence is the youngest and least respected of the Big Four. ISIS makes a point of quoting Salafist sources, which they are able to do because they are largely in step with all four major schools, and not just a breakaway cult.

It's funny, most new recruits are used as cannon fodder or "martyrs".

No memes, you are likely right.

Sup Forums in general seems to attract lonely, angry, frustrated, rejected persons. This is why extremists (although much less terrifying extremists) thrive here. For example, National Socialists openly attempt to recruit here (In meme form or otherwise) because it is a place filled with persons who fit the aforementioned characteristics.

This is also how ISIS manages to get people to attack people for them in countries they have never been to and use people they have never communicated with to carry out their destruction. They actually "crowdsource"" terrorism.

They post just like the Neo-Nazis do. Planting ideas of "The Jew" or "The American" or "The West"and wait for people to self radicalize.

The rise of hate groups and terrorist groups is an extremely interesting topic.

Islam is morally like Christianity to them, the source of morality. They see it as a higher good that people don't fully engage in because they're lazy, like not going to church. There are some people, either extremely successful like bin Laden or a complete loser like a supermarket worker, who crave a higher purpose to fill their unsatisfactory lives.

People in Syria are also attracted to the prospect of stable government after years of war. If you join ISIS you have a job, much higher than average income, and a purpose. This attracts a lot of unemployed youth.

I'm honestly surprised the idea of sex slaves hasnt made the entire /r9k/ join them

Because most westerners, especially converts, are first in line for car bomb duty.

>cherrypick
got to be REAL hard to find them cherries

>islam is correct in one sense...the world needs cleansing...not just of the jew,but of the degeneracy that has accumulated over the decades....problem is they won't stop at just that.

>live in a war-stricken theocratic desert shithole
> heathen imperialists with an army of robots shows up and bombs your country to ruins in pursuit of their own economic and strategic interests
>you know that these heathen invaders did this before, centuries ago, and that they're allies with another nation that commits genocide against a group of people with a similar religion to yours
>grow up knowing that your father died fighting these infidels, and incorporate that into your own personal mythology
>lose friends, family members, and neighbors to indiscriminate bombings by robots until your actually learn to fear a blue sky
>be hopeless, depressed, and directionless
>dude rolls into town with money, a reputation, sweet rides, tons of guns, the promise of revenge, and possibly pussy
>this dude's group is universally painted as the "bad guys" in the imperialists' media, and is universally feared by them
>this guy presents an extreme version of the faith you so desperately want to have and a sort of brotherhood

Is it really that hard to understand?

What about the westerners that go over and join them. Pretty sure they're just idiots filled with delusions of grandeur that grew up playing COD.

I'd argue that they're in a similarly exploitable mental state.

This is true they want to find their olace in the world no regardless of how fucked it may sound to us.
What does that say about someone like me who'd love to go over and kill them?
I can't help but fantasize about capturing one of theirs and slowly beheading them on video and afterwards sending it to them?

There was a pretty informative NYT article about how they tried to get their hooks in a recent convert to Islam.

I thought it was pretty interesting how they told her NOT to go to her local mosque for guidance and shipped her propaganda instead.

Is it because new converts don't know much about the religion and are thus more malleable ?

The Jew is behind it though sop we're justified in our reservations about them

Impressionable, yes.

Hey nice flag

Came here to post something similar. I think this sums it up pretty good.

Its undeniable that western nations bombing the middle east subsequently create more terrorists. There was a very interesting article which predicted that if in theory we could solve the conflicts in the Middle East we would still feel the effect of Muslim terrorist attacks some 40 years.

Let that sink in.

...

American suburbanite kiddos find it appealing because they've done literally nothing interesting their whole lives.

I imagine recruits in the Middle East are just confused or indoctrinated.

the only thing keeping most of us from going ISIS mode is the disappointing fact that there is no ISIS for white males.

if some orthodox patriarch were to call upon willing voluntaries to start a crusade, 3/4 of Sup Forums would blow their life savings on a plane ticket to moscow and sign up for holy war.

Some of Sup Forums would.

But another thing that stops Sup Forums from being as radical is that teaches people to be Nationalistic.

I was always an American Nationalist, but if you come on here and you realize that you want to be the best you can be for your own country and try to help your country. You're far more likely to join the Army or the Navy instead of going off to some other country to join a Holy War.

>Why are people attracted to this ideology/religion other than by coercion?

In Iraq the Sunni have been abused at the hands of Shia militants since the fall of Saddam.

A lot of Sunni don't like ISIS but they see them as their only opportunity to esacape persecution from the Shia.

Sunni's are the majority of Muslims worldwide. They find it reprehensible what happens to so many of them at the hands of Shia militants.

Muslims are attracted to ISIS because they are building the caliphate, their fundamentalist approach to Islam and their impressive military victories against overhwelming odds. They attribute the humiliating defeats of Islamic fundamentalist movements to the fact that they are not being devout enough, so ISIS starts to look like some kind of divine happening.

Also the fact that they talk to fucking depressed losers in the west who can't get girlfriend's, and tell them that they will have themselves a wife and a purpose in the Islamic State.

They just use the wahabist mosque network that Saudis fund across the world.

Somehow they also manage to recruit western autists, I assume using facebook or social media.

islam and jihad, its as simple as that.

Isis is an outgrowth of western culture, your already a social outcast cause your brown or Muslim, why not get paid, kill all the people who hate you, fuck bitches who can't say no, and then die young. It's whatever body wants in the west, but without the blue balls

When your population becomes more atheist, they'll be easily

From a few political science classes specifically regarding conflicts in the ME and Africa, it sounds like there are lots of middle men who are effectively recruiters and very hard to distinguish. They can be anything from a teacher to a camp counselor or the like. They'll have the ability to cross state borders easily and have a great mobility. Basically, some dude at your mosque gets to know you. They innocuously probe and figure out if you'd be the type of person to buy into their ideology. They hook you up with the right people, send you to the training camps.

remember Guantanamo bay?
why is that never talked about anymore?
why would they always cover the face?
If these where meant to be worlds most dangerous terrorist wouldn't it make sense to show the face
anyway we all know brainwashing went on there
not saying all isis are from Guantanamo bay
but you can bet that the top boys are
