Since ISIS rose to conquest in Syria and Iraq, then turning its deadly attention westward, it (with the help of its government and media accomplices) has unleashed a fresh flood of terror, which the people of the West have, unresisting, let wash over them.

In America, Donald Trump has tapped that terror to fuel the flames of Islamophobic hate, which he hopes will propel his rise to Presidential power.

"When can we get rid of 'em?" asked a supporter at a rally before the Paris attacks. "We are going to be looking at a lot of different things," Trump assured him. After Paris, he told a reporter:

"We're going to have to do things that we never did before. And some people are going to be upset about it, but I think that now everybody is feeling that security is going to rule. (…) And so we're going to have to do certain things that were frankly unthinkable a year ago."
