EXTRA !! EXTRA !! DONALD TRUMP JOINS ISIS !!!!
N.P.R. yesterday interviewed Canadian Graeme Wood, author of The Way of the Stranger. The book is an expansion of Wood's 2015 cover-story for Atlantic magazine, "What ISIS Really Wants."
__________________________________________________________________________
[N.P.R.]: How do they justify the violence?
WOOD: You'll find some who will say the violence is temporary. We are Muslims who are reviving the faith and we have to do this in a fallen world, so we'll cut off the hands of thieves right now. But once the Islamic State is stronger and people realize this is the punishment, we won't have to cut off hands.
[N.P.R.]: The violence is a way to peace?
WOOD: Yes. That's what you find with the nicer ones.

Note that the "nicer" adherents of ISIS operate by the lie called out in Romans 3:8, that doing evil will bring about good.
Note that Donald Trump joins ISIS in that operative lie, promising that his unrighteous policies will "Make America Great Again."
