The time to act is now

building up a state. The ca lJ has gone out to doctors, engineers and others to join ISIS in a non- fighting rol e.

0ver the past few months, the world has seen the rapid rise of extremist Islami c group ISIS as it has capnued terri tory for itself in north - east Iraq the si ze of V ictoria. Exp loiting a three - year civil war in Syr ia, and the disenfranchisement of the Sunni popu lation in Ira q , the group ca lling itsel f the Isl amic State of Iraq and S yria bas carved our a si zeab le sancmary from which to enlarge its activities.

To be.Ip in its expansion plans, the militant organ isation has a wa r chest wh ich is funded from illegal oil sales, arms running and ransom payments for hostages, and its estimated income grows by over a million do ll ars a day.

It is believed that it has over I 0,000 6ghters, a number of chem fore ign nationals from US, UK and Australia. le is now believed to be in Phase Two of its expansion, wanting to bri ng in administrators who can work on

This has co stop. If the recent videos of the p u b li c beheadings of two American jo urna lists are any indication of the brutali ty of chis regime, they simply have no place in our modern soc iety. These are barbaric actions which have been rorn1d ly condemned b y world leaders, but this needs co be followed up by action.

The United States has been spL1rred to ac t by the pub li c outcry over i ts initial lack of action. Austra lia has stepped in co s t art the initia l efforts. One suspects chat pose the NATO meeting over the next few clays, and ,vith the installation of the new government in Iraq, there w ill be strong i nternational action and intervention to minim ise the threats posed b y ISIS.

However, what is important is chat the actions against the terrorist group not be restricted onl y co a handful of NATO countries; other countries which srrongly condemn ISIS and what it stands for, also need co step up. Countri es with sizeable Muslim populations s u ch as Indones ia and Ma la ysi a need to take a position on chis.

If there are an esdma ted 1.6 billion Muslims around the world, they cannot allow thei r re ligion to be hijacked by 10,000 fundamentalists. The y need to raise the ir own voi ce.

The ISIS fundamentalists have shown strong capability in using social media to push their messages, including the editing and footage of the beheading o f the innocent hostage s. Thei r recruitment of foreign fi g h ters is also believed to have been through social media To counter this, perhaps moderate Islam needs co use these very channels of new med ia, and show its own strength in the condemnation of ISIS. While their governments fight the grou n d battles, everyday c itizens need co use the ir options to educate tbe community on the insanity of th is organisation. Moderate Islam ic leaders need ro flood the airwaves of the traditional med ia of pr int, rad io and televis ion, and ensu re the ir feelings and thoughts on this topic are beard, read and seen by as man y peop le as possibl e. The se xiness and m yths genera t ed by the Ishmic State of Iraq and Syria need to be s hown for what they are - a group of individuals using religion ro perpetuate barbaric acts aga inst other human beings.
