Does ISIS have any redeeming qualities?

well there are a lot of extreme muslims living in the west that have gone to ISIS. According to hagel about 100 americans have left america to fight for ISIS.

Its better they leave the west than do boston bombings.

Eg. Imagine the tsarnaev brothers leaving america to go fight for ISIS and dying in iraq or syria and not bombing boston.

I saw on the news a couple of american citizens have died in iraq or syria after joining isis. those are guys that wont be able to commit terrorism here.

to summarize the redeeming quality of ISIS is that they are causing extremist muslims to leave the west, thus lowering the risk of them attacking the west.

No, I think that is fair and balanced and most people would probably agree. ISIS = at least as bad as the nazis, probably a bit worse.

It won't get you far to try weigh in some political structures or regimes. Similarly, it's pretty useless try to argue what is better - five stabbings and two shootings or three shootings and two stranglings. It's of no use.
