The Rise Of Isis

Originally called the “JV squad,” ISIS has proven itself to be adept, strategic, and ruthless to the extent they will go to cause terror. They are particularly known for their horrific and barbaric execution styles, including burning alive, beheading, and dismemberment via explosives.

The Rise Of ISIS Isis (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) is a Muslim jihadi extremist group and self proclaimed caliphate, which is run by Sunni Arabs from Iraq and Syria.

To be frank, I believe there are two majors issues destabilizing the Middle-East: (1) the rise of the Islamic State (ISIS) and (2) a future nuclear-arm Islamic Iran. It worthy of noting that the intricacy of the Middle East did not start with ISIS, arguably so, the Middle-East was always a chaotic place. After the rise of ISIS, this organization managed to expand its operation beyond the Middle. The ISIS group became and still is the most dangerous criminal organization. Among many of their criminal

Sectarian tensions affect atti-tudes toward Iraqi leaders and democracy in general. For example, many Sunni and Kurd par-ticipants worry that Abadi will only represent Shia interests and think that someone coming from Maliki’s party, Da’wa, will focus
