"As the Islamic State’s control of territory in Iraq, Syria, and other countries declines, al Qaeda has attempted to resurge and reposition itself at the center of global Salafi-jihadist activity. Syria has been perhaps its most important prize. For some, al Qaeda’s cunning and concerted efforts in Syria and other countries highlight the group’s resilience and indicate its potential to resurge and rejuvenate. Yet a growing body of evidence suggests that al Qaeda has largely failed to take advantage of the Syrian war. The importance of Syria for al Qaeda’s leadership raises several questions. How has al Qaeda fared in Syria? What have been its most significant challenges? What do answers to these questions suggest about al Qaeda’s future in Syria and the region? Looking forward, the most significant challenge may be assessing what happens next in Syria and the region."

Sir,
"Islamic State in decline"
I do not want to assume anything. So, I will just write the following: How can the Islamic State be in decline? It is an ideology.
The so called Sunni Islamic State is an order from Muhammd for the Ummah to form a Caliphate. Minus infidels, Jews and Apostates like the Shia. Unless, one pays a tax.
Sometimes, I get the impression those who write articles have not seen the handy work up close of those who justify murder in the name of the one true god of the Kaaba. The god, or my god of the Kaaba in Arabic translates to Allah.
I noticed, every Islamic majority country supports Sharia Law. Will not the Mosques across the globe send new recruits to areas of interest like Syria, Iraq and Afganistan? Does it matter they have lost ground when they will retreat to cover in remote areas? Then, build their force again through the preaching of the Koran?
If we are to listen to educated men about a subject that is physical and ideological, shouldn't those learned men know who are the innocent within Sunni, or Shia Islam?
I ask this question. Because, it is the base of everything we see those who follow Muhammad's orders. If you are eduacted and can not understand, or want to understand this most basic belief within the religion of Submission, keep your opinion to yourself and a small group of individuals at your stinking tea parties.
Bonus question for $200. Why would a warrior for Muhammad who is not stopping their Homosexual behavior, have to murder as many Homosexuals as he can before he himself is dead?
Regards,

All very good points - as usual Mark. Did you see the article posted up from RSIS on the Madrasas in Pakistan.. it was right up your ally. I disagree with this article as well as you on the decline of IS.... nothing has been done to challenge the ideology -- and it is not limited to one country or one leader... More so - I disagree wit them on AQ as it is featured.. but it was still a good read.

Sir,
I'm sorry if I came across hard on that author and I do not know his background. But, I hope the War college does not teach using that type of soft material.
Have a good evening Sir.
