How about we deal with the facts on the ground TODAY.
ISIS is in the process of taking over the City of Kobani on the border between Syria and Turkey.
Turkey has a line of Tanks watching -- they are historical enemies of the Kurds who are defending Kobani.
The USA has "gone poof" -- we don't care about the City of Kobani, even though Team Obama claims these will be the USA "boots on the Ground". Bottom line is .... ISIS is cleaning our clock and will use this as a Great Victory to show that they Defeated the weak USA.
Looks a lot like the "Defeat and Destroy ISIS/ISIL" is Smoke and Mirrors to get through the 2014 Mid-Term Elections. Obama is 'reactionary". He has NO "Strategy". His Military Forces kill Trucks and do everything they can to avoid killing Terrorists .... like ISIS/ISIL.
You think this is bad now ...... just wait, it's going to get a lot worse.
So, your solution would be to let the Muslims force acceptance of their soi-disant religion on everyone else (including Christians) so that their lives might be spared?
When the Muslim hordes overran the Christian lands in the eleventh century, slaughtering thousands of Christians, and all of Western civilization (and Christianity) was threatened, the response was the Crusades.
Today, we face a similar threat, as it is the goal and aim of Islam (just as in the eleventh century) to "unite" the World under an Islamic Caliphate, by force, if necessary.
It would do you good to read a little further down and see who stopped them. Most people have no idea the true story, including people who claim to be Christians.

WHERE were all you 'liberals this,liberals that' whiners when your little Neo-Confused bungler was telling us what a noble pursuit fighting to bring a better way of life to Muslims was?
I think we were just learning about this Religion. What do you expect from a President who has really never read the Bible front to back and connected the people.

This type of logic seems so short sighted to me. It didn't stop, it just moved on to the next area, like a virus. So where does the spread end? The goal is to convert the whole world by any means necessary, isn't it? They have already infiltrated several European countries. When the rest of the world is converted, you don't think they are going to come after the US? Isn't it better to stop them long before that point?
No, it's the opposite. Obama has read the Bible too much.
No, he had another man's deceitful warped interpretation of it screamed into his brain for 20+ years. And he liked it.

Believe me...the first man running for president that professes to NEVER having read the Bible will get my vote. I don't care if he belongs to the Mickey Mouse party.
You got your desires. Where did it get you? Are you better off than 6 years ago? Who made you better off? Your own efforts? The government? Are you safer?
The Mickey Mouse party 'by any other name'.......yeah, I think that's what we got now...
Should we be surprised at what the jihad for an Islamic State is doing today? It is unprecedented, right?
Not exactly...
1. In the year 637, Muslims stormed the city of Caesarea, they not just slaughtered all soldiers on whom they could lay their hands, but decapitated all the males and to instill terror in the minds of the womenfolk, the Muslims tore open the abdomens of the Byzantine soldiers and ripped out their hearts.
2. In the years 1915-23, Armenians say they lost 1.5 million people. Armenia was the first Christian country, so it held special significance to the Muslims. Greek Christians also suffered just as badly from Ottoman Turks.
Muslim history just keeps repeating itself, so why are we all that surprised at what ISIS is doing in this age?
The story in the Middle East has not changed for 1500 years...
Same old story, but seems worse because you would think that they would have evolved in 1,500 years - not the case, but perhaps these are the end times.
