This reminds me of an issue of Dabiq magazine I read (ISIS propaganda). It was surprising that most of the arguments for their actions are cogent presuming all the ahadith (ie. oral traditions) that were considered authentic a millennium ago should still be practiced today. However their arguments for prophecies were stretched, with claims that the US is the Roman Empire and such. The photos were stunning. Each one looked as if it ought to be a stock Windows wallpaper. And then I saw the photo of a beheading that I wish I could unsee. Now I'm quite happy to follow events using secondary sources, and I don't envy anyone who has the task of reading this shit.
