Misoverestimating ISIS
Mueller, John Stewart, Mark
Misoverestimating ISIS :: comparisons with Al-Qaeda / [Recurso electrónico] PDF .-- : Alex P. Schmid , 2016
An examination of the ISIS phenomenon, comparing it with that generated a decade and a half earlier by alQaeda. Although the vicious group certainly presents a threat to the people under its control and although it can contribute damagingly to the instability in the Middle East that has followed serial interventions there by the American military, it scarcely presents a challenge to global security. Moreover, the group is in very considerable decline in its key areas, Syria and particularly Iraq. As with al-Qaeda, however, the unwarranted fear and alarm ISIS has generated is likely to persist even if the group is effectively extinguished as a physical force in the Middle East.
