Abstrakt: The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS/DAESH) is orchestrating well through the information and communication technology in its different means. Despite the counterattacks it is still remaining strong in the YouTube, Facebook and most extensively on twitter. Through the analysis of their websites and the different social media tools, the ISIS/DAESH is able to send its messages to the world, not only its aggressiveness, but also its positive impact on people, as they perceive it. They aim with their messages to recruit more people, to justify their attacks religiously, and to show their strength virtually and on the ground. The ISIS/DAESH is able to post their messages and images through their supporters and those whom they recruit, and they are able to publish through institutions merely established for supporting the ISIS/DAESH. All publications were developed with well-established techniques with emotional messages that touch all those who look for the rule of religion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
