American and NATO forces have only lost a few thousand dead in Iraq and Afghanistan and have ran from Iraq and are considering running from Afghanistan. In Iraq and Afghanistan Western firepower inflicted enormous casualties on Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. Even as Obama urges military actions against ISIS he and Cameron are promising not to put boots on the ground.How the hell are you supposed to win a war without boots on the ground and without taking casualties? The squeamishness and cowardice has to end. The West needs to wake up.

Recent polls show that a significant minority of French youth i.e. Muslims support ISIS. That means France may have to fight an internal war to crush Islamists who may take over whole cities. Remember those riots a decade ago? The rioters were shouting Allah Akbar. Every European country with a sizable Muslim immigrant population will be fighting against jihadists on their own streets in the future if ISIS is not stopped right now. We already have about 20,000+ Muslims in Ireland and they are having larger families than native white Irish people are. In Britain there are hordes of them and they have taken over cities like Bradford which might as well be called Bradistan.

They're having more kids than, as you put it "native white Irish". Because that is what it's really about, for you.

It is not voluntary and it orders people who leave it to be killed. It lays obligations to non members in society and commands its followers to imitate the Prophet. The Prophet Muhammad was a liar, rapist, mass murderer and a pedophile. This is why ISIS believe they can do the same today. The more Islam penetrates any society the more Shariah gains ground and secular law degenerates. There are parallel cities within Western cities and parallel Muslim states within Western states.

They may be in the minority, but they are a very large and extremely dangerous minority. Boko Haram, Hezbollah, Hamas, Al Queda, IS, ISIS, Muslim Brotherhood and the list goes on and on. The saying 'evil prospers when good people do nothing' comes to mind. I'm delighted that we are concerned for the average muslim and what may happen if we vilify Islam. However, I believe we need Muslims to be involved in the conversation as to what must be done to eradicate this evil. Its actually not that too far fetched to imagine those Islamists on our own shores being emboldened etc. They have already bombed NYC, London, Boston and Madrid, not to mention the countless victims from Sudan, Nigeria, Iraq, Syria etc. They are doing this in the name of Islam. They are looking to bring about Sharia, and they view your average westerner as infidels deserving of death. I know that they recruit angry young men in our nations too, and that their numbers are increasing. It would be very unwise for us to simply stick our heads in the stand about such a reality. When a ISIS member shows up at someones home, I don't think they look to have a theological discussion about the intricacies of the Koran and if what they are doing is wrong. This Islamist problem is an unfortunate issue that muslims must confront and help deal with in the modern world as much as we do. I'm reminded of the group of Muslims standing in front of the Coptic Christian church in Egypt, preventing Muslim Brotherhood members torching it. We need more such courage and action from the Muslim world IMO.

I don't in the slightest consider ISIS, Al Qaeda, Boko Haram etc. to represent Islam, and they are just as much a problem for Muslims are they are for the west. Religion is a very powerful tool and unfortunately is does get wrongly used. Conversation and co-operation is the only way forward - and unfortunately whilst some young lads do get brainwashed to join these wrong causes (and it is our responsibility to ensure we minimise that), the majority of us do see right from wrong and just want to live in peace. But the problem with the middle east isn't that these groups have formed out of nowhere because a cleric somewhere has come up with a radical interpretation of the Koran. Much of the momentum behind them comes directly as a result of an angry backlash to western foreign policies/invasions in the area, and as much as us moderate Muslims need to play their part to tackle the issue, so must the west realise the part it has played in their creation (even to the extent of supplying these groups with arms when they first formed, such as the taliban when they were fighting the russians in afghanistan).
A full scale war after the criticism that the 2003 invasion of Iraq received?
Today we have a declining America saddled with massive debts weary of war.

While they remain a particularly vile entity and a threat to specific regions within Iraq, Syria, etc, they are no way near the capacity needed to gain control of the entire country, or any country for that matter.
