William McCants’ recent scholarly book on the origins and beliefs of ISIS leaves no doubt that while this is a theological argument, it is very much an argument within Islam. (It seems worth keeping in mind that Shiites, a minority estimated at 200 million, are considered heretics and non-Muslims by many Sunnis. Perhaps we should ask Hillary where she stands on this.)
A similar view is held by the Catholic Church regarding non Catholics. Many Evangelicals also hold the same view regarding Catholics and other Protestants. Perhaps we should ask Ben Carson, Ted Cruz and other religious right GOP candidates where they stand on that! Oh, but I forgot, that would be another unfair gotcha question by the liberal media.
