Billy86 wrote: » No no no, drone strikes randomly killing innocents you see Francie, that's the way to stop radical terror cells like ISIS from recruiting disillusioned people. "You know, as a young and impressionable Syrian I wasn't very fond of the US and it's role in destabilising the part of the world I lived in. Islamic extremist groups would constantly use this as propaganda for their recruitment, and each and every time the west would would be involved in another incident, that propaganda would sound just a tiny bit more true and appealling. But then when the west blew my entire neighbourhood to pieces killing nearly everyone in it including the rest of my family in a drone strike... well you know, they're kind of alright." Sounds totally realistic, right?

It's hard to know what stand politicians should take apart from the obvious ones. You need to kill the ideology. Waste of time carpet bombing the "caliphate"...

This guy's mindset will be closer to that of an American teenager, so disaffected that he opens fire with a machine gun in a school, than it is to that of ISIS.

That doesnt mean we can't be honest and come out and say there is a problem also if islam refuses to reform, surpressing isis is prefereable to doing nothing and allowing them to fester
