To the editor:
Donald Trump may be the greatest recruiter for ISIS/ISIL to date. His extremist rhetoric demonizing and alienating Muslims is exactly what the extremist group wants.
A good read of their ideology and objectives is the March 2015 article in 'The Atlantic” magazine titled 'What ISIS really wants and how to stop it.” It can easily be accessed by searching 'Atlantic magazine archives.”
We have visited five overwhelmingly Islamic countries and others that have significant Islamic populations and view the idea that mainline Islam is a threat as preposterous.
