It appears are own levels of empathy are tinged with hypocrisy.

After being inundated for months with information about the next Gaza protest, which food chains to boycott, where oh where are the zealous protesters when it comes to ISIS?

In what is arguably the biggest and most catastrophic genocide of the modern era, why are we not protesting?

Where have all those demonstrations disappeared too?

ISIS, or whatever they have decided to re-brand themselves as are the very same group that al-Qaeda wanted to distance themselves from because Al-Qaeda, yes, al-Qaeda deemed ISIS to be too extreme and bad for their image.

This fact would be risible if it weren’t for the death of at least 500 of Iraq’s Yazidi ethnic minority. Not forgetting that the extremists had also buried alive some of their victims, including women and children.

Furthermore, some 300 women were kidnapped as slaves.

Surely this level of atrocity warrants some sort of response from all those laptop warriors?

ISIS supporters have been seen handing out leaflets on Oxford Street encouraging them to leave Britain for its new Islamic state.

“Congratulations…the Caliphate has been established” states the leaflet in all its glory. Is this the same Islamic state that rules it is okay to kill anyone that doesn’t agree with you?

Apparently random beheading, executing and torture all fall under the peaceful constitution that the religion of peace teaches.

However deluded the global of ambitions of ISIS/ISIL/IS are, they remain a very real concern.

It is thought that some 500 British nationals have already joined up with the terrorist group.

Earlier in June horrifying footage emerged showing ISIS insurgents decapitating a police officer in his home.

After the beheading, the terrorists posted a picture of the officer's head on Twitter with the comment: "This is our ball. It's made of skin #WorldCup."
