This means, in effect, that the ISIS power structure is an authoritarian one in which the caliph holds total, tyrannical power over his followers.Second, ISIS terrorists employ " denial of injury " to justify violence. Any acts of cruelty hurt people, of course, and it is hard to deny the injury done by terrorists to their victims. Rather than explain their actions, terrorists attack those who disapprove of their deviance.
