WE REALLY MUST EXPLORE THIS AND FIND WAYS TO SAFEGUARD OUR CHILDREN SO THEY DON'T BECOME LIKE THE KNOWN 23 SWEDISH YOUNG PEOPLE OF OVER 150 FROM THAT NATION WHO RAN OFF TO JOIN ISIS AND ARE NOW CASUALTIES OF THAT ERROR OF JUDGMENT.
THEY JOINED ISIS AND PERISHED.
AMERICAN TEENS HEAD FOR SYRIA
Three Denver teenage girls , aged 16, 17, and 18, recently skipped school and flew to Germany to join ISIS before being sent home.
A 19-year-old American nurse aid who planned to travel to the Turkish border to marry an ISIS member she met on the Internet was stopped at Denver International Airport.
A suburban Chicago teen was arrested before boarding a flight to Turkey to join ISIS fighters in Iraq and Syria.
ISIS excels at recruiting American teens.
Here are four reasons why:
1- Appeal to sense of identity and place -
According to news and FBI reports, ISIS (or IS) typically preys on Western youth who are disillusioned and have no sense of purpose or belonging. Much like criminal gangs, IS offers disaffected teens a chance to join a group that gives them purpose and meaning.
IS offers structure and a defined place in the Caliphite society they have created. Such a surrounding can be appealing for someone who feels he is adrift in the world.
2. Appeal to a sense of religious obligation –
IS appeals to a sense of religious duty and a youthful desire to express religious sentiments that make people feel connected to each other.
Many of these young people are new converts to Islam. Fighting a Jihad with IS serves as a proving ground for their new beliefs and, if they survive, a confirmation of the new “higher power” at their extremist fingertips.
Furthermore, IS’s publicized successes and their declared aspirations to dominate the world and impose Sharia law also appeals to these young religious zealots.
3- Use of sophisticated internet propaganda.
According to Matthew Olsen, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, ISIS now operates the most sophisticate propaganda machine of any terrorist organization.
"It turns out timely, high-quality media, and it uses social media to secure a widespread following."
4- ISIS' jihadi brides recruitment appeals to young women.
TEENS AS YOUNG AS 13 CAN LOOK FORWARD TO BEING BRIDES.
Hundreds of young Western women have been reportedly wooed by IS fighters to become “jihadi brides” , but what makes them go?
Their "sisters", for one, those whom ISIS uses in propaganda videos that tell stories of romance, sisterhood among the young brides, offer stability, even luxury, and reverence.
The idealism of the "revered wife" is sold hard to naive young females who have never seen a Muslim family home.
But, they're eager to be loved, needed, "revered".
The young virile men pictured in ISIS videos who are supposedly "looking for a bride" send naive girls' hearts pounding.
The departures to join ISIS are less the whims of adolescents and more the conclusions of months of work by organized radical recruitment networks that specifically target young people in search of an identity and a sense of belonging, of being important.
WHAT SHOULD ALL THIS TELL US?
THAT MORE AND MORE OF AMERICA'S YOUTH FEEL AS IF THEY DON'T BELONG, AREN'T APPRECIATED, HAVE NO SENSE OF PURPOSE WITHIN THEIR OWN FAMILIES, OR WITHIN SOCIETY IN GENERAL?
IS IT JUST TOO HARD IN AMERICA FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TO COMPETE WITH OTHERS TO BE "POPULAR", TO BE A PART OF THE "RIGHT CLIQUE"?
IF SO, THEN ISN'T IT THAT, AS CHRIS DICKEY SAID, "Their drive is a deadly combination of youthful fantasies and aspirations to “be someone” ?
OR ARE THEY SIMPLY DUPED BY LACK OF FACTUAL INFORMATION, LACK OF MATURITY, A DESIRE FOR "ADVENTURE"?
IS IT LIKE SOME HOLLYWOOD MOVIE, SOME VIDEO GAME, SOME ROMANTIC NOTION OF HELPING THE "UNDERDOG"?
ISIS PORTRAYS ITSELF QUITE WELL AS A DEDICATED RELIGIOUS GROUP OUT TO "FIX THE WORLD", SOMEONE WHO WILL RESTORE ORDER TO WHAT THE KIDS MAY SEE AS CHAOS, REPLACE SHALLOWNESS WITH A DEEP SENSE OF TRUE PURPOSE.
WHAT A "NOBLE CAUSE" TO BECOME PART OF, RIGHT?
"TOGETHER, WE CAN RULE THE WORLD"?
HOW CAN WE COMBAT THAT?
HOW CAN WE MONITOR AND HELP OUR CHILDREN SO THAT THEY DON'T FALL VICTIM?
We here in America, our media, our table-talk, have painted most current heads of state in Middle Eastern nations as monsters.
We have vilified Assad of Syria, after we did the same of Hussein of Iraq, Gaddafi of Libya, Mubarak of Egypt, Ahmadinejad of Iran, and led the efforts that have killed half of those "monsters".
Our children see this and may then see nothing wrong with being a part to ridding the world of such terrible people.
ISIS promises to set it all right, to be a ruling force that will improve the world.
TOO LATE WE MAY HAVE REALIZED WE HAVE NO RIGHT TO TELL THE REST OF THE WORLD WHO SHOULD RULE THEM WHEN OUR OWN NATION IS AS DIVIDED AND PITTED AGAINST ONE ANOTHER AS IT IS.
WE REALLY HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
NO ONE HAS DIED AFTER APPOINTING US "KING OF THE WORLD".
THERE IS PLENTY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TO DO TO MAKE AMERICA A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE, SO LET'S POINT THEM IN THAT DIRECTION.
OF COURSE THEY WANT A SENSE OF PURPOSE, AND WE CAN GIVE THEM THAT RIGHT HERE!
THERE ARE PLENTY OF ORGANIZATIONS STRUGGLING TO HELP OTHERS IN AMERICA.
INTRODUCE YOUR CHILDREN TO THOSE OPPORTUNITIES.
HELP THEM GET INVOLVED.
ENCOURAGE THEM TO BECOME LEADERS HERE, ON HOME SOIL.
THEY CAN STILL HELP SEND FOOD, MEDICINE, SUPPLIES TO THE PEOPLE IN OTHER NATIONS WITH WHICH THEY MAY "IDENTIFY".
THEY DON'T HAVE TO TRAVEL THOUSANDS OF MILES TO "SERVE HUMANITY".
IF IT'S A RELIGIOUS CALLING THEY FEEL, LET THEM FIND A CHURCH, SYNAGOGUE, MOSQUE TO ATTEND.
LET THEM GET MORE DEEPLY INVOLVED WITH THEIR PEERS IN THOSE SETTINGS, BUT CAREFUL OF FANATICAL IDEOLOGIES IN ANY OF THOSE.
FAMILIARIZE YOURSELVES WITH WHAT IS BEING PREACHED, TAUGHT.
HOW MUCH DO YOU REALLY KNOW ABOUT THIS MESS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, ABOUT ISIS AND THE OTHER "RADICAL ISLAMIST" ORGANIZATIONS?
TIME TO LEARN!
THERE IS A FAIR ARTICLE ON "Why and how Westerners go to fight in Syria and Iraq"
HERE:
DO YOU REALLY HAVE A DEEP UNERSTANDING OF THE TEACHINGS OF THE UNTRANSLATED QUR'AN?
YOU MUST BE AWARE THAT THERE DOES NOT EXIST AN "ACCEPTABLE" TRANSLATION OF THAT BOOK BY ANY ISLAMIC NATION ON THIS PLANET...NOT ONE.
TO TRANSLATE IT INTO ANY "HERETICAL" LANGUAGE IS AN AFFRONT, IS LOATHED.
THE QUR'AN IS THE TRUE QUR'AN ONLY IN THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE!
ANY IMAM WILL TELL YOU THAT ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS MAY HAVE BEEN "APPROVED" IN ORDER TO WIN CONVERTS, BUT NONE ARE ACCEPTABLE!
ALL CONVERTS ARE SCHOOLED IN THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE, ARE EXPECTED TO LEARN AND USE ARABIC.
[SEE: http://www.meforum.org/717/assessing-english-translations-of-the-quran ]
I CAN SIT HERE AND TELL YOU ALL DAY THAT, HAVING LIVED IN THE MIDDLE EAST, I KNOW THAT "RADICAL ISLAM" IS SIMPLY ISLAM, PERIOD, THE END.
YOU WILL HAVE TO GO FIND THAT OUT FOR YOURSELVES.
WHAT WE KNOW OF HERE AS "AMERICAN MUSLIMS", THE TRADITIONAL, DEEPLY DEDICATED ISLAMIC NATIONS OVERSEAS CALL "HERETICS" OR "APOSTATES", AND, SURPRISING AS IT MAY BE, AMERICAN MUSLIMS ARE MARKED BY ISIS AS THEIR NUMBER ONE TARGET ONCE THEY CAN GET OVER HERE AND DEAL WITH ALL OF US IN THE "NATION OF SATAN".
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN "AMERICANIZED ISLAM" AND PURE ISLAM AS LIVED IN NATIONS LIKE IRAN, IS AS DIFFERENT AS MIDNIGHT ON A STORMY NIGHT AND SUNSHINE AT NOON ON A CLOUDLESS DAY.
THERE IS NO COMPARISON, I ASSURE YOU.
WHO IS "APOSTATE" TO ISIS?

THERE IS NO COMPARISON, I ASSURE YOU.
WHO IS "APOSTATE" TO ISIS?
"Denying the holiness of the Koran or the prophecies of Muhammad is straightforward apostasy. But Zarqawi and the state he spawned take the position that many other acts can remove a Muslim from Islam. These include, in certain cases, selling alcohol or drugs, wearing Western clothes or shaving one’s beard, voting in an election—even for a Muslim candidate—and being lax about calling other people apostates. Being a Shiite, as most Iraqi Arabs are, meets the standard as well, because the Islamic State regards Shiism as innovation, and to innovate on the Koran is to deny its initial perfection. (The Islamic State claims that common Shiite practices, such as worship at the graves of imams and public self-flagellation, have no basis in the Koran or in the example of the Prophet.) That means roughly 200 million Shia are marked for death.
So too are the heads of state of every Muslim country, who have elevated man-made law above Sharia by running for office or enforcing laws not made by God."
But Muslims who call the Islamic State un-Islamic are typically, as the Princeton scholar Bernard Haykel, the leading expert on the group’s theology, told me, “embarrassed and politically correct, with a cotton-candy view of their own religion” that neglects “what their religion has historically and legally required.” Many denials of the Islamic State’s religious nature, he said, are rooted in an “interfaith-Christian-nonsense tradition.”
SOME FIGURES ON WHAT PERCENTAGE BY NATION THE MUSLIM PEOPLE THERE SEE "RADICAL ISLAM" AS THE REAL ISLAM CAN BE FOUND HERE:
http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2014/09/04/myth-tiny-radical-minority/
STATEMENTS BY ISIS ITSELF ARE ALSO VERY REVEALING.
THEY INTEND TO PUNISH SEVERELY ALL WHO HAVE NOT ADHERED TO THE TEACHINGS OF THEIR PROPHET!
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A "MODERATE MUSLIM" IN ISLAMIC STATES ABROAD!
HAVE WE FORGOTTEN THE NEWS REPORTS AND LIVE VIDEOS FROM THOSE DEVOUT MUSLIM NATIONS AFTER OUR 9/11 TRAGEDY?
THERE WAS DANCING IN THE STREETS, CELEBRATIONS, PEOPLE SENDING ONE ANOTHER GIFTS IN SAUDI ARABIA, GAZA, EGYPT, IRAN, IRAQ, KUWAIT, PAKISTAN, AFGHANISTAN, JORDAN....
DID YOU FORGET THAT?
THEY DID THE SAME THING AFTER THE BOSTON MARATHON BOMBING.
"Historian John Philip Jenkins writes, “As late as the eleventh century, Asia was still home to at least a third of the world’s Christians and perhaps a tenth of all Christians lived in Africa. What happened to this thriving, intellectually vibrant Christianity? It was virtually wiped out by violent Islamic persecution, especially during the fourteenth century, due to ethnic and religious cleansing.” Islam became known as “the religion of the sword,” and for good reason."
AMERICA BECAME "THE GREAT SATAN" AROUND 1979, AND JIHAD WAS DECLARED AGAINST US TIME AFTER TIME.
NEVER FORGET THIS.
WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO TO SAFEGUARD AMERICA'S YOUNG PEOPLE FROM ISIS?
GENTLE STEERING, DEDICATED PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT BEATS RAIL-ROADING AND MICRO-MANAGING YOUR CHILDREN.
TAKE TIME TO SIT DOWN WITH THEM AND JUST TALK ABOUT THINGS.
LET THEM KNOW THEY'RE LOVED, NEEDED, AND THAT YOU RESPECT THEIR OPINIONS, EVEN IF YOU DON'T ALWAYS AGREE WITH THEM.
IF YOUR CHILD IS ONE OF THOSE "LONERS", SEEMS TO LACK A HEALTHY SOCIAL LIFE, TRY TO FIND OUT WHY.
MAYBE YOU JUST HAVE A CONTEMPLATIVE BUT HAPPY INTROVERT ON YOUR HANDS, IN WHICH CASE, NO PROBLEM.
BUT IF YOU HAVE AN UNHAPPY CHILD, DO TRY TO FIND OUT WHY AND HOW YOU CAN BEST HELP.
SOMETIMES ALL A CHILD NEEDS TO "FIT IN" IS AN EASY FIX.
SOMETIMES ALL A CHILD CAN DO JUST WON'T BE ENOUGH, FOR WHATEVER REASON.
WE NEED TO KNOW WHICH OF THESE IS THE CASE AND HELP THEM DEAL WITH IT.
CHILDREN CAN TREAT OTHER CHILDREN QUITE HORRIBLY.
IF YOU RECALL, GROWING UP WAS NOT THE EASIEST THING.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES CAN MAKE IT SEEM DOWNRIGHT IMPOSSIBLE.
BE HONEST.
DON'T SUGAR-COAT THINGS.
DON'T TREAT YOUR CHILDREN LIKE FRAGILE GLASS.
THEY CAN HANDLE HONESTY MUCH BETTER THAN THE MILDEST FORMS OF DECEIT.
IN OUR HURRY-UP WORLD WE NEED TO FIND TIME, QUALITY TIME, BE ABLE TO GIVE AS MUCH UNDIVIDED ATTENTION AS WE CAN TO REARING OUR CHILDREN, TO PROVIDING THEM A STABLE, LOVING ENVIRONMENT THEY CAN ALWAYS TRUST IS REAL.
IF YOU WERE A JOCK, AN OVER-ACHIEVER, THE CENTER OF ATTENTION, A RAVING BEAUTY, A "SUPER-STAR", THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO MAKE YOUR CHILD INTO THE SAME TYPE OF BEING.
LET YOUR KIDS BE THEMSELVES, WHOMEVER THEY ARE.
THEY'LL GO THROUGH STAGES, JUST LIKE WE DID, AND MAY JUST WIND UP A "CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCK", BUT DON'T MAKE THAT A PREREQUISITE TO YOUR LOVING THEM AND BEING PROUD OF THEM AS INDIVIDUALS.
YOU CAN PUSH A CHILD, BUT YOU CAN ALSO PUSH A CHILD SO FAR AWAY THAT YOU MAY NEVER GET HIM/HER BACK.
THAT IS NOT TO SAY YOU HAVE TO REAR A "SPOILED BRAT".
THE PARENT-CHILD RELATIONSHIP IS ONE IN WHICH PARENTS ARE "FRIENDLY DICTATORS".
THERE WILL BE HOUSE RULES, "LAWS OF THE REALM".
BUT THERE IS NO NEED FOR A TASKMASTER, AN UNYIELDING TYRANT WHEN IT COMES TO REARING A HEALTHY CHILD.
MAKE IT YOUR BUSINESS TO KNOW WHERE AND WITH WHOM YOUR CHILD SPENDS TIME.
YOU CAN DO THAT WISELY, SUBTLY, WITHOUT APPEARING MEDDLESOME.
KEEP A VIGILANT EYE ON SOCIAL MEDIA CONTACTS, ON HOW MUCH TIME YOUR KIDS SPEND THERE.ISIS IS EVERYWHERE ONLINE!
CHILDREN ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO PEER PRESSURE, TO GOING ALONG WITH THE CROWD, TO PULLING THE WOOL OVER PARENTS' EYES.
YOU DID THE SAME, MOST LIKELY.
REMEMBER THAT.
REMEMBER WHAT YOU DID AND HOW YOU DID IT!
WATCH FOR WARNING SIGNS.
STAY INFORMED.
