Ideological State of Iraq and Syria

Syed Farook was born in Illinois to Pakistani immigrants.  He had worked at the San Bernardino public health department for 5 years.  Two years ago, he married his wife, Tashfeen Malik, and they had a baby girl 6 months ago.  Then, out of the blue, he and his wife shot more than 30 people, mostly Farook's co-workers.  Sure, they were both Muslims but that had nothing to do with it.  No, this was probably work place violence.  Oh, the wife pledged allegiance to ISIS on Facebook during the attack?  But it still has nothing to do with Islam.  Islam is a religion of peace.  ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Boko Haram, Hezbollah, Al-Shabaab, Ansar al-Islam, and all the rest are doing Islam wrong.
 
It turns out that ISIS is not Islamic.  Which must mean that all of those other groups aren't Islamic either.  There is an interesting article on Think Progress that explains it:
 
 
Well, that cleared things up.  So Mohammad wasn't a Muslim.  You see, he was a warlord who led his 'peaceful' followers into a score of battles.  His followers began as bandits who struck Meccan caravans, the better to get wealth and power.  After a successful battle against a Meccan force where he was vastly outnumbered, his following grew.  Eventually, he conquered Mecca and then Arabia.  It was all done very peacefully, because Islam is the religion of peace.
 
But back to Farook.  Though he has been described as 'very religious,' we know that his path led him not to true Islam but to Ideology!  Yes, it was an evil Ideology that somehow exclusively afflicts Muslims.  Those terror groups have all wrongly appropriated the title of Islam.  Of course, no one should ask why Muslims are so susceptible to Ideology.  Just be satisfied that Ideology is not Islam.  There is no link.  If you think otherwise, you are an Islamaphobe and may be subject to prosecution by the DOJ!
 
 
Maybe Attorney General Lynch could use that same reasoning to protect Christians and Jews?  Maybe?
