“…They are based in Africa (green circles), Asia (yellow circles), and the Middle East (yellow circles). Whatever their reasons for pledging allegiance to ISIS, all these smaller groups shared the belief that they could benefit from ISIS' brand name and popularity in terms of attracting more recruits, gaining recognition, and receiving ideological and logistical support (Cengiz and Karademir, 2020). Other factors, however, also played a role in each terrorist organization's decision to declare loyalty to ISIS.…”

Counter-terrorism efforts against jihadist groups have been challenging for law enforcement and the military because terrorist organizations constantly update their tactics and mimic the successful strategies of popular and influential groups, such as ISIS, that have developed a specific model for carrying out their destructive acts. ISIS created its terrorism model in 2014 and has used it to control territory, spread its ideology, create provincial branches in different regions, inspire lone actors, and generate revenue. Terrorism databases are full of incidents that involve ISISstyle tactics, targets, and affiliated groups that act as provincial branches of ISIS. This paper examines how ISIS developed its model, what components that model involves, and how the model has influenced not only jihadist groups but also right-wing extremists and drug cartels around the world. The study uses a mixed method of quantative and qualitative research, and the proposed ISIS Model is developed through a rigorous literature review.

“…Saudi Arabia and Qatar also have sought to overthrow the Assad regime by supporting opposition groups regardless of whether they are terrorist organizations. The ongoing civil war in Syria has led to many cases of arms and money being transferred to al-Qaeda and ISIS groups in Syria (Cengiz, 2020).…”

Kehidupan manusia erat dengan realitas yang plural. Pluralisme merupakan realitas dunia yang tidak dapat dihindarkan dan ditolak. Pluralisme sendiri perlu dianggap sebagai anugerah yang diberikan Tuhan kepada manusia. Dunia yang plural memberikan warna yang lebih kepada kehidupan manusia. Hal ini menuntut sikap inklusifitas dalam kehidupan sosial agar manusia dapat terhindarkan dari konflik yang merugikan. Sikap inklusifitas dapat kita temukan dalam semangat universalisme dari dua agama besar. Kristen Katolik dan Islam menganut paham universalisme dalam menyebarkan ajaran agamanya. Hampir di setiap belahan dunia kita dapat menemukan penganut agama Kristen Katolik dan Islam. Universalisme dalam kedua ajaran agama tersebut menghendaki setiap orang untuk dapat bergabung sebagai anggota tanpa melihat latar belakang suku dan bangsa. Inklusifitas dalam semangat universalisme kedua agama seringkali tercoreng oleh tindakan perorangan atau kelompok ektremis fundamentalis. Tindakan kelompok partikular tersebut tentu tidak dapat mengeneralisir keseluruhan ajaran dalam agama tersebut. Akan tetapi, hal tersebut dapat menjadi peringatan bahwa gaung eksklusifisme perlu digemakan kembali.
