Lol, happened ages ago man. We actually are at war with ISIS. Surprise! You see, way back in 2001 just after 9/11 Congress passed a "Authorization for Use of Military Force" (or AUMF) which is constitutionally a declaration of war. That AUMF authorized the use of the armed forces in going after "terrorists" and terrorist organizations who played a role in the attacks or who harbored or aided the groups or individuals who did. In practice it is a sweeping authorization of power which effectively makes most of the world an active battleground and is the legal basis for the US military's use of drones and bombing campaigns in areas from Pakistan and Afghanistan to Iraq, Yemen, and Somalia. It has been modified, updated, and re-authorized by congresses over time but it is still in effect. We are still at war with "al qaeda" and its cousins and compatriots, which includes ISIS (the organization previously known as "al-qaeda in Iraq"). So there you go. We have actually been at war with ISIS since its inception (which was after 2001).
