I&#x27;m gonna go on a limb here and say that ISIS is suspiciously the perfect enemy for our leaders. It just happens that ISIS attacks our enemy (Assad) and the more we &quot;fight&quot; it, the more powerful we get because we have reasons to increase the &quot;defense&quot; spending and the more they attack &quot;us&quot; (they never really attack the leaders personally), the longer we can stay in power (see Hollande&#x27;s support ratings after attacks), we can pass sensible legislation, keep the internal dissent low and we never run the risk of a clear and complete defeat like it would happen with a real enemy like China or Russia. It&#x27;s the best enemy you can get (so much better than USSR) no wonder the west supported it&#x27;s creation and are quite annoyed when Russia wants to destroy them too.
