The Iraq-ISIS Conflict

In just a matter of days, the Al-Qaeda splinter group known as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) has seized major cities in Iraq, including Tikrit and Mosul. In doing so, the Islamic insurgents claim to have killed hundreds of Shiite Iraqi security forces. They now sit on the doorstep of the capital city of Baghdad. TVO Foreign Affairs Analyst Janice Stein, syndicated columnist and author Eric Margolis and York University Professor Thabit Abdullah sit down with Steve Paikin to discuss the terrorist group's offensive and goals, the ethnic tensions that spurred their growth, and what the response will be from countries that were at war in Iraq only three years ago.
