Isis

Introduction
Isis is an offshoot of Al-Qaeda.  Isis purpose is 2 create a caliphate.  Salafi is an ultraconservative form of Islam, that's what they follow.  They have been raising hell in Asia and Africa. They have a billion dollars worth of assets.  They have been helped and hindered by various countries and organizations.

Origin
Isis splintered off from Al-Qaeda in Iraq.  They were defeated in 2007.  Later, they regrouped and went into Syria during the Arab Spring.  They increased their ranks by setting Iraqi prisoners free.  Al-Qaeda fell out with them in 2014., because Isis was too brutal.

Purpose
They want 2 create their own Islamic nation.  They use to rule central Iraq, but not anymore.  The Iraqi people were afraid of them.  Children were kidnapped and indoctrinated.  Now, these children live in mainstream society.  The victims of Isis are afraid of these children.

Salafi
This form of Islam is Sunni.  It was created in Egypt during the 1800's.  It was a reaction to European conquest.  Muslims that follow this form of Islam believe they should behave like Muslims did during the time of the prophet.  There are 3 types of people that follow this.  Purists don't get involved in politics.  Activists are political. Jihadists want to topple the government.  Salafism has similarities to Wahhabism.
