The tragedy of Karbala decided not only the fate of the Caliphate, but also of Mohammadan kingdoms long after the Caliphate had waned and disappeared.

William Muir

Yes, ISIL is a terror-based insurgent army that seeks to establish a Caliphate, but the group's actual end goal is far from political: ISIL believes that, through jihad, it will bring about the Day of Judgment. This is not true Islam.

Malcolm Nance

The ghost caliphate will be a virtual organization; it'll be decentralised, with no leadership, and it will just encourage people to keep acting now that the caliphate's gone, that individuals should go do self-starting jihad. Get a gun, get an improvised weapon, take your car, and carry out the jihad.

Malcolm Wrightson Nance

The less the ISIS 'caliphate' exists as a physical entity, the less the group can claim it is the 'Islamic State' that it purports to be.

Peter Bergen

Al Qaeda asks its recruits to establish their bona fides as a condition of membership, even requiring answers to a long questionnaire. But ISIS has democratized and globalized jihad by lowering the entry bar to an eve-of-destruction YouTube pledge of allegiance to the caliphate - and even that could probably be waived.

George Packer

Damascus was the seat of the Ummayad Caliphate in the 7th and 8th centuries.

Richard Engel

More people are realising that ISIL's not a caliphate. It's a crime ring.

Barack Obama

Obama doesn't believe in American leadership and the net result is we have a caliphate the size of Indiana.

Jeb Bush

People who have left the group talk about how a religious inspiration took them to ISIS. It was their feeling of being marginalized as Muslims in the society where they were living, and then buying into the promise of a caliphate and of a Muslim land that is governed as in the time of the prophet. I have yet to meet anybody, or speak to anybody, who was not religiously motivated at some level.

Rukmini Maria Callimachi

If things continue like this, the history of our age may one day be written under a caliphate's supervision .

David Selbourne

Iraq was home of the Abbasid Caliphate, a golden age when the Muslim world was at the forefront of math, science and medicine.

Richard Engel

If only Muslims were clever politically, they could take over the United States and replace its constitutional government with a caliphate.

Siraj Wahhaj

ISIS has a caliphate the size of Indiana! Also, US military has been totally gutted. Can't even project power anymore.

Jeb Bush

International terrorists who pursue completely mad objectives such as establishing a world caliphate or something of the sort, are quite adept at disguising their real aims as a struggle for independence in Chechnya.

Vladimir Putin

ISIS hates the West as an abominable nest of infidels - infidels who reject the Quran and Shariah Law and so must be annihilated. We are the obstacle to the new Caliphate.

Tom Tancredo

We have to destroy their caliphate because that gives them legitimacy to go ahead with the global Jihad. We have to take their energy because they are - ISIS is the richest terrorist organization there is.
