there were people that were joining ISIS before Canada committed Military support to that fight.

The radicalization nowdays has less to do with Isreal and more to do with selling these lost souls on the concept of a established conservative pure Islamic Calliphate then a fight against Israel.

These guys are going over not with the promise of killing Jews and pushing Israel into the ocean, but painting a picture for lost pathetic people of going over and fighting and killing for their religion, and getting a subservient wife and a life equivalent to Paradise.

There are a lot of interesting articles on ISIS recruiting methods, I also followed a twitter of one of ISIS' more well known social media female recruiters out of interest.

Their recruiting is very professional, Goebbels would have been proud that ISIS had updated his playbook.

There's also a prevalent thought out there that the various groups under the Al-Queda banner are losing the recruiting war with ISIL because Al-Queda is still very much focused on the war against Isreal and the West and its not resonated with the more affluent recruits that ISIS is getting especially from the West.

Basically Al-Queda isn't radical and conservative enough.
