And this is all the more curious given that deaf people don't fair well on the battlefield.
They don't want *fighters* they want suicide bombers.

It is?
You might make a case for the level. But it is still a retooling. If McDonalds suddenly changed it's name to "McPaynoattentiontoourcrappypay" it would still be the same Company.
Perfect example is "Childfund" used to be called "Christians Children's Fund", they dropped the "Christian" part because it wasn't marketing well.
ISIS who puts out these videos are tech savvy I am quite sure this wasn't simply about getting warm bodies. Just like when other groups recruit women. It isn't just about warm bodies. They are trying to make a moral statement too.

Um,
er,
I just assumed there was stuff in the Koran that corresponded to the Bible in regards to people with rashes, birth defects, goiters, leprosy, discharges and stuff being banned from religious services. So, soliciting folks that are, (sorry for the word but that is what scripture uses) ritually unclean to do the Prophet's work is OK in Islam ??

I feel sorry for the death people. They can't appreciate the ISIS barber shop quartet. You know, those vocals in their propaganda videos. (Note the sarcasm.)

I don't want to be a "death" person, it would put a damper on my current living state.

On a serious note though, I do wonder how effective deaf soldiers would be. Since they can't hear they won't be able to know when bullets are being fired and I'm sure that there won't be that many ISIS who can use sign language. I think deaf people will struggle to integrate into ISIS personally.

There are limits even with "able bodied" people too. My senses all work, but emotionally I could not handle a battlefield. Much in the same way I am not equipped to be a neurosurgeon.
I am quite sure however, whatever jobs a deaf person could not do, they certainly could do other things and even better than a hearing person.
My advice if they want to win hearts and minds would be really simple. STOP KILLING PEOPLE.

The message that ISIS seem to want to send is, "Hey, almost everyone hates us! Why not join them?"
