The only ones giving them any real power are the politically correct fools who can't see further than the end of their noses.

There are lots of variables to Jihadism but ISIS are not one of those variables.

ISIS are Salafi (an offshoot of Wahhabism) and their warring is about reform of the Islamic faith.

Jihadists could be loyalists to their government or against their government. Jihadism could be an unhealthy divide between Shiites and Sunni and Jihad can also mean “internal struggle” which has nothing to do with being militarized. Most importantly, the use of force within 'Jihad' has some very strict exclusions which include no harm to women, children and vulnerable people such as the handicapped.

Jihad is not a declaration of war against their own or other religions and therefore ISIS are not Jihadists.
