ISIL is not only fighting a cultural war; it’s fighting a media war. For that reason maybe we should stop talking about it as though it were a “real” war. As though there were valiant warriors on both sides. As though those responsible for the Brussels bombings are anything more than murderers, plain and simple. Truthfully, the only community the Brussels attackers belong to now is the criminal community.
It is time to strip terrorists of their mystique. We must stop playing their game.
