Illogical. Why terrorising people and be known for it?

Are you aware that ISIS is literally a terrorist group?

I'm aware of that. But why do they do this? Why terrorising people on behalf of muslims? It's dumb.

Then people are gonna generalise and blame all muslims because of what ISIS is doing, a groupe that is Shii شيعي, not even Sunni سني.

Well tell them that, innit?

Have you considered the fact that that's PRECISELY what they seek? Muslims and westerners used to get along relatively well. ISIS perfectly knows what they're doing is causing a rise in islamophobic sentiment among westerners, and, as a direct result, a rise of anti-western sentiment among Muslims. They WANT the West and Muslims to hate each other.

Saying all Muslims are somehow to blame for Isis is like saying all Western Societies are to blame for the KKK.
This was a terrorist attack, like all extremists they claim to represent more than they are.

Then it's dumber if west overgeneralises ISIS' actions to all muslims and spreading islamophobic stuff because of what ISIS is doing. Western societies should normally be aware that one group of people doesn't define its entirety.

Such type of arrogance and terrorism extremists do isn't the behavior of muslims. ISIS shouldn't be called an "Islamic State". It's like naming a group of pineapple on pizza enjoyers "Anti-pineapple on pizza state".

Of course it's dumb. But the fact is: it's working. Who's to blame? People who overgeneralise? Certainly. ISIS? Well, obviously.
Also note that it's just as dumb to blame "the West" for the misdeeds of a few islamophobic politicians than it is dumb to blame "Muslims" for the misdeeds of a fes terrorist groups.

As I said: go tell them that, innit? I would hate for someone to do terror attacks and then pretend it was in my name, but I don't really have any power of stopping them from doing so, do I?

That's why we call them Daesh
using the name ISIS is an insult to the goddess, and more credit than they deserve
