The rhetoric in such a statement is asinine and should never see the pages of a reputable publication.

After all, the formula is simple: Wildly exaggerate the actual threat. Inflame the rhetoric. Blame Muslims. Brush aside issues of human rights. And strap in — while the votes flow your way. It is a clever way to distract voters from more immediate and genuine threats, such as climate change and the economy.

In my view, if this doesn’t fit the criteria of an “international movement” posing “a very serious menace to this planet,” I don’t know what does.

you're cherry picking sentences out of the article out of context to prove your point (a typical righties playbook move)
It may have been a weirdly titled article for what it is (and I'm guessing that all you did was read the headline and not the actual article - and cherry picked one sentence out of it), you'd realize that the article was talking about
a) climate change should be talked about more
b) Canada, UK, Australia have pm's that are using fear to try to keep power, and that the rhetoric is all the same from all 3
c) doesn't say anything that says IS isn't a threat
