bomb those motherfuckers down to the core of the earth. if this awful shit had to happen, I am glad it does not only happen to us. maybe the West will now unite to rid the world of this scum.
Part of the problem is that bombing the physical locations of these fuckers does little except provide them with more images for recruitment videos...and more recruits. The ringleaders are far from the action, (cough ... Saudi Arabia... cough) stimulating chaos from remote.
What this needs is the Arab world to stop saying how much they hate ISIS and actually do something about it. If you add up the standing armies of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Turkey etc. etc., they have about 5 million troops available. Plus they have all new kit that's almost (if not exactly) as state of the art as ours. Why is this on us, when it just makes the crazies come after us more, while they have everything they need locally to sort this out - everything except an actual desire. You don't think they could roll in and take out 20-30,000 ISIS fighters if they wanted to?
Take the racial and religious differences out of it - i.e. make it Muslim vs. Muslim, Arab vs. Arab, then you take most of the wind out of ISIS' sails. You certainly take the US and Europe out of it. It's long overdue that we make the Arab world clean up it's own back yard. We have all the oil we need right here; we were a net exporter, we just stopped producing it because the Saudis dumped the market. At what point does our security involve getting the fuck out of the middle east and consuming our own energy?
Take the trillions of dollars we spend on playing whack-a-mole over there, and subsidise the price at the pump for the US consumer.
Limey 2016.
