Exactly right. The plight of the Palestinians is a significant recruiting tool but that&#x27;s all it is. ISIS has no plans to liberate them.<p>The purpose of ISIS is exactly what they say it is. To establish their own state governed by hard-right Islamic ideals. And the reason they have so much support is largely driven from the perceived persecution of Muslims worldwide e.g. xenophobia in Western countries, drone strikes on innocent civilians etc.
