In part, such rhetoric conveys the sincere, albeit megalomaniac, beliefs of ISIS devotees, as well as the candid anxieties of its potential victims. Yet in part, it is the outcome of unscrupulous pursuit of political interests. ISIS\u2019 sinister image is a product both of its own manipulations and of the inadvertent aid it receives from its Western enemies.<\/p>\n<p>Western politicians, for instance, often abuse ISIS\u2019 image to attain electoral goals, even at the price of enhancing the organization\u2019s strength. Preying on American fears after the San Bernardino and Orlando attacks, Donald Trump opined a series of policy clich\u00e9s that do not offer useful solutions but, rather, play into the hands of ISIS\u2019 incitement and war mongering. Speaking in favor of a discriminating immigration policy that would prevent nearly all Muslims from entering the United States, Trump handed ISIS another victory in the arena of psychological warfare. Targeting the Muslims collectively, as he did, is precisely fanning the flames in the way that ISIS leaders would like to see, in the hope that this will offend Muslims, radicalize their views, and widen the gap between them and other Americans.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/images\/upload\/files\/Hurvitz-Fear-and-Faith-Sep-2016.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Even more cynical was Benjamin Netanyahu\u2019s manipulation of the ISIS phenomenon during the 2015 elections in Israel. A short while before they went to the ballots, his party, the Likud, aired a clip warning Israelis of ISIS\u2019 impending conquest of Jerusalem. As ISIS was losing territories and operating far from Israel, Netanyahu scared Israelis into voting for him by depicting ISIS as a real and immediate danger. In Israel, as in many European countries, politicians present the public with disingenuous information about ISIS, thus \u2013 perhaps unknowingly \u2013 promoting ISIS\u2019 goal of public intimidation.<\/p>\n<p>Netanyahu\u2019s disinformation policy resembles the propaganda of one of the most notorious butchers in the modern Middle East, Bashar al-Assad. Both, like Abd al-Fattah al-Sisi, Egypt\u2019s autocratic ruler, regularly conflate ISIS with other Islamist movements such as the Muslim Brothers and Hamas. Although the gap between ISIS and the other movements is huge, these politicians have no qualms about using duplicitous facts to tarnish their enemies. Once again, ISIS\u2019 image is bolstered and transformed into a major threat that exceeds its true abilities by ascribing to the movement many more supporters than it actually has, and presence in areas it can barely reach in reality.<\/p>\n<p>ISIS\u2019 image is distorted by politicians at the other end of the spectrum, too. Barak Obama\u2019s refusal to place ISIS within the orbit of Islam by labelling it \u201cradical Islam\u201d discredits him and the call to view Islam as a multifaceted phenomenon. It is essential to understand ISIS within the socio-religious framework of Islam in order to identify the Muslim intellectuals and religious leaders who have the tools to confront it and diminish its appeal. While all armies and security systems can combat ISIS with military means, only Muslim spiritual leaders can contest its religious credentials and lessen its impact on Muslims.<\/p>\n<p>ISIS has become a pivotal reference point in international politics, primarily because of its psychological accomplishments and less due to its military performance. The exaggerated image built up around the movement is the consequence of manipulation by countless players \u2013 first and foremost ISIS itself, but also some Western security officials, rating-starved media, and politicians of all persuasions \u2013 who attempt to promote their respective agendas. As a result of these outright lies, fabrications and distortions a cloud of disinformation has formed around ISIS that benefits the movement. As surprising and frustrating as it may be, the reactions of Western politicians and public opinion shapers actually bolsters ISIS\u2019 psychological warfare.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, Western rhetoric has become a weapon in ISIS\u2019 arsenal. If Western pundits and politicians wish to stop being the unwitting accomplices of ISIS, they need to speak about the organization more professionally and responsibly.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/images\/upload\/files\/Hurvitz-Fear-and-Faith-Sep-2016.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Translator: Michelle Bubis<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISIS\u2019 fantasies echo the world\u2019s nightmares: both envisage the organization as disproportionally more powerful and threatening than it really is.
