8th September 2014, Arab League Secretary-General urges members to confront ISIL (Source: AP)

The head of the Arab League urged its members to confront the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) "militarily and politically," issuing an apparent call to arms as President Barack Obama prepares to    unveil his own plan to stop the extremists.

Backing from the 22-country Arab League could provide crucial support across the Middle East for Mr Obama's effort to assemble an international coalition against ISIL, the marauding group that has conquered a swath of Iraq and Syria, committing beheadings and mass killings to sow terror.

Already, NATO forces have agreed to take on the jihadists.

Nabil Elaraby, Arab League Secretary-General, said that what was needed from Arab countries was a "clear and firm decision for a comprehensive confrontation" with "cancerous and terrorist" groups. The Arab League includes Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Lebanon, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

Comments:

On 4th September 2014, during the NATO Summit in Wales, British Prime Minister David Cameron showed a consensus to join the U.S. fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. Prior to that, President Barack Obama held a talk with King Abdullah of Jordan to discuss ways to combat ISIS. The day after that on 5th September 2014, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei offered his support to U.S to fight against ISIS. We hear now, a call from the Arab League urging the members to confront the Islamic State.

The question is the ISIS or "Islamic State" or ISIL the real threat and danger to US, Europe and to the world? If it is, then why only a few hundred of U.S. military advisors were sent to Iraq in August and no action taken in Syria in the past? At the same time, why in the recent month has the western controlled media, continuously shown the story of brutality, injustice of ISIS to the world?

The truth is, it is not about ISIS or IS itself. It is the new agenda propagated by the west to show the brutality, cruelty and negative image of Islam. U.S. has failed with the Free Syrian Army in Syria. Together with Syrian coalition groups, U.S. has failed to disunite the sincere Muslims in Syria to fight against Bashar Assad and from working towards establishing the Islamic State.  ISIS is being used within to divide the Muslims in Syria and Iraq using the "Islamic State" idea. The "Islamic State" is used to group Muslims against one another and kill the others.  The "Islamic State" then labelled as terror state, evil and injustice, becomes an easier justification for U.S to attack the Muslim after.

Similar to what happened after Sept.11, Al Qaeda labelled as a terror group was used as the reason to invade Afghanistan and Pakistan. This is the repeating action by the U.S and even worst, they are using the Muslims against each other. The Kuffar are attacking the main idea for Muslims to implement sharia by the Islamic State. They are portraying the negative image of it, the state commonly portrayed with hatred and collectively calling all people in the world including Muslims against it.

The world including the Muslim leaders will fight against "Islamic State" under the name of justice, human rights and democracy. They will not see Islam as the only way to bring fair and justice to world though has been proven more than 1400 years.

Allah (swt) said in Al Quran;

((وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَـكَ إِلاَّ رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَـلَمِينَ))

"We sent thee not, but as a Mercy for all creatures." [Al-Anbiyaa: 107]  Do not fall into the trap with the Kuffar's plan against Muslims but unite to establish Khilafah "Caliphate". Muslims should not be divided against their real enemies of Allah and are not to kill their own brothers.  Allah (swt) said,

((إِنَّمَا ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ إِخۡوَةٌ۬ فَأَصۡلِحُواْ بَيۡنَ أَخَوَيۡكُمۡۚ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تُرۡحَمُونَ))

"The believers are but brothers, so make settlement between your brothers. And fear Allah that you may receive mercy." [Al-Hujurat: 10]
