Vorwort
In a matter of two years ISIS has become the world’s richest terror group, taking control over territory the size of Great Britain. Despite all we know, the group remains shrouded in mystery and contradictions. ISIS is savage and brutal, yet meticulous, organised and sophisticated. Are they really just crazy fanatics, or is there something hidden behind the dichotomous image the group has chosen to propagate? How is the so-called ‘caliphate’ run and will it remain? This analysis will attempt to answer these questions through a nuanced and detailed assessment of the Islamic State’s strength, and will accordingly outline essential strategies to weaken and defeat the group.
