The lamestream media is overemphasizing the supposed widespread public revulsion expressed by Arab Muslims regarding the recent immolation of a Jordanian pilot at the hands of ISIS. But what is being minimized (or ignored) is the lethal arithmetic of the Muslim and/or Arab "calculations" with regard to Islamic terrorism.
There are approximately 1.6 billion Muslims in the world, and of them, approximately 350 million are Arabs. Even if 99 percent of those people reject Islamic extremism as represented by ISIS, there would be approximately 16 million potential Muslim recruits worldwide, or 3.5 million in Arab countries.
Some estimates have current ISIS troop strength numbering less than 40,000, and the 1 percent (16 million) are at least a potential and possible fruitful source of recruitment and/or funding.
The reported worldwide disdain for ISIS doesn't begin to address the potential terror and damage that can be done by that 1 percent minority. Hence, America and its allies -- specifically those in the Muslim world -- must intensify and coordinate strong efforts to choke off funding and recruitment by ISIS. The numbers speak for themselves.
