Numerous organizations and movements can be accurately and precisely identified by closely analyzing their ideology.
If one contemplates the moments and times of the emergence of this group and considers the swift capture of extensive parts of Anbar, the largest province of Iraq, it becomes apparent that this group arose as a significantly larger organization with regional authority.
Daesh emerged with sophisticated regional intelligence capabilities and swiftly gained prominence in its initial days.
However, as its true nature became apparent over time, it lost its essence and the position it held within its movement faded, leading many to become disillusioned with it.
Ultimately, this movement, devoid of a genuine religious ideology, met a swift demise.
Indeed, Daesh is perceived as the most significant and dangerous contemporary human phenomenon, entering the scene with strategic backing from regional and trans-regional intelligence sources and establishing a prominent position among jihadist groups with a calculated and deliberate strategy.
In fact, the enigmatic nature of Daesh’s violent actions and the roots of its emergence caused many to doubt, and this issue prevented many others from supporting them.
Although Daesh, in its emergence, was a center and refuge for fulfilling the Islamic aspirations of some superficial thinkers, Daesh ultimately revealed its true nature, deviating from its core principles. It became evident that this organized phenomenon was never a means to uphold piety or exalt the word of Allah on Earth.
- In truth, the organization and ideology of Daesh stem from desires that global political players had planned and prepared to achieve long-term goals.
