Not our problem. We are not under threat.

Ending aid to ALL Syrian rebels would be a start. Enough is enough. No moderate rebels, no such thing, all worked with ISIS for two years.

If anything, we should equip Assad and the Iraqi Army to take care of this mess.

First I would make a peace treaty with Iran. Iran is Isis' natural enemy but can not effectively operate in a meaningful way outside of Iran because of American opposition. By unleashing Iran a fairly stable balance of power could be re established in the region. A balance I must say that was destroyed by the USA in their war against Iraq. Iraq and Iran pretty effectively kept the terrorists at bay for a long time. I would also put HEAVY pressure on Saudi Arabia to engage actively in the fight or lose American support for their despotic Kingdom.

Call Putin. Put differences aside and join forces to eradicate ISIS. The partnership worked once before.

1. Grow a pair.
2. Stop denying they are muslims.
3. actually do something besides golf and go on vacations
4. talk angrier, with force and determination, not this mumbling it does.
5. divorce the wookie
6. give public school children the same lunch that your brats are enjoying
7. kick ISIS butt by any means necessary.
8. do just like the president did in WW2 with the Japanese. He did more with his disabled legs than this twit we are stuck with.

A strategy that will work. What this is I am not clear on. Is there going to be a strategy that will rectify this ISIS PERIOD.

Hey they knew a year ago about this situation, and now doing something about it. We get rid of ISIS lets say for our sake. Who will the next ISIS be. And will we ever truly get rid of this problem in the Middles East.

Time has told us thus far, the answer is no. A barbaric people hell bent on killing innocent men, women, children and babies, beheading people to make their point. I do not believe these people will change. Get rid of them, more will follow.

I do believe in the leader of our Country being strong, and showing that he does not waiver at all. From day one.

I do not like mixed messages.

People respond to incentives and capitalistic rewards.


The war in Iraq has already cost the US well into a few hundred billion dollars or more and the end result after leaving has been: ISIS.

So basically - have Blackwater assemble a highly elite team of Rangers, Seals, Delta Force, etc -

Possibly totally about 900 - 1,000 members and give them access to any and all weapons, helicopters, planes, technical support, etc

And make the total payout be about $100 billion. And give them a timeline of 6 months to completely annihilate and destroy ISIS which is only comprised of about 18,000 - 20,000 actual targets. About a quarter of them will run once they realize what is coming there way, which would put the number at closer to 15,000. With the superior logistics, weapons, technology and support given to the mercenary team as well as the $100 billion reward for destroying ISIS by any means necessary, it should solve the problem.

Leave them alone. Bring our military back to guard our borders. Let them try to come in and experience the wrath of America. They don't need to feel our wrath on another nations soil.

I'm willing to bet it will stop. At least drop significantly. These people only want to be left alone, exactly as you and I would in our homes if someone was invading it.

Stay the heck out of the Middle East. If the people of the ME want ISIS gone, it's up to to do the fighting and dying. There is no reason to sacrifice another American life for the sake of the people of the ME.

We should stop appeasing the Saudis and Gulf states, and give Iran, Russia and Syria a free hand to whip ISIS.
