3 Common to both of these approaches is the base assumption that the problem of Daesh and al-Qaida should be defined in Islamic terms. The constant claim in those scenarios is that Islamist ideology not only misrepresents Islam, but it can also be viewed as “a virulent vision all its own, one that its adherents have created by plucking selections from centuries of traditions.” 2 However, this argument rarely extends far enough to give the “virulent vision” a name other than radical, or fundamental Islam, let alone suggest remedies. 1 Other attempts have been made to demonstrate that radical Islam is not Islam at all, except in the most superficial or perverted manner. Many theories attempt to define and offer solutions for dealing with the brand of radical Islam that fuels Middle Eastern movements such as Daesh.
