    Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the government know where IS is stationed? What's stopping us or Russia from obliterating them from the face of the earth??

    Hey Americans, please stop acting like 4000 refugees is something you can't economically handle, that's pure foolishness

    Yeah, but the war in Iraq essentially created ISIS. If we never declared war on Iraq none of this would probably be happening.

    I'm open to letting children in and maybe women. But the men need to stay there and fight back. America has enough p-----s.

    If people are afraid of other people bringing a threat of violence with them that wouldn't have otherwise existed, I think it's an misunderstanding of the way things work: you shouldn't be afraid of that, you should be afraid of this. Not quite an irrational fear, you're right, but it's an irrational choice that's based on the wrong fear.

    I think that's an okay idea... but my caveat is that if the children aren't assimilated properly, they'll become resentful of the culture/socioeconomic gaps, get their head filled with whatever voodoo bs radicalized people do, and go rogue

    i think you made a post a few days ago about this being akin to school shooters, which i thought made sense. cultural and institutional issues fester then eventually explode

    I just imagine how much worse it would be without the war though. Terrorism has to be fought or they will get nukes and f--- us all. What is your solution? Stop fighting?

    The entire world is to blame for allowing this to go on for years because everyone wanted a certain person to be the president if Syria and used isis at some point thinking we could wipe them out once we done with it

    No one thought they will get this big and now we dunno how to deal with it

    Well it'd be nice to get the refugees out so we could bomb the f--- outta them with little civilian casualties.

    yes.

    This goes back to Obama bringing our troops home. At least we still had a presence on the ground there. I get that people wanted them back, but look at the repercussions. Aside from air strikes these guys apparently can operate freely.
