A model from Australia was killed recently, fighting for ISIS. Stephen Bucknall, director of Melbourne's FRM Model Management, said his agency had represented Jama for two and a half years. It had severed its relationship with the aspiring model when media reports surfaced in December that he had joined ISIS. "We were quite shocked to find out he had joined ISIS, and we immediately cut ties with him," said Bucknall. "He was a very likeable guy, very courteous, always came around with a smile. He had a great modeling career ahead of him. He always showed up at the agency ready to work on the runway, print and TV."
It's stories like these that exemplify the destructive nature of terrorist groups. They aren't advocating religion, they're advocating the pointless deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. Although terrorist groups are relatively unprecedented in the history of the US with the innovation of modern technology, it's important to note that radical groups like ISIS(like radically anti communism groups during the red scare) cause pointless harm.
