This Week’s Quote: “People who argue that ISIS poses a threat to our democracies are out to lunch. ISIS is an ugly phenomenon, but it’s largely the consequence of one blunder after another by the US and its allies in the region, who shouldn’t have been meddling there in the first place…If the US and its allies want to reduce ‘terror’ in the region…they need to stop participating in it.” —Julian Assange
