@rezaaslan Good point. All the Republicans, not just @marcorubio, want voters to think ISIS is a threat. It gets them votes.
How weak and insecure must @marcorubio think America is if he seriously believes ISIS can overthrow it? American exceptionalism, indeed.

@wyoumans@rezaaslan The fear-mongering rhetoric of politicians like@marcorubio is the best shot ISIS has at overthrowing America.#irony -
@SulomeAnderson@rezaaslan@marcorubio It's much easier to rile up fear than it is to contain or moderate it later, producing bad decisions. -
@wyoumans@rezaaslan@marcorubio Precisely. Also feeds the general atmosphere of Islamophobia & partisanship, destabilizing us from within.
