Shouldn't we invade every country that oppresses women by your logic?
The only reason ISIS exists is because we created it, and your solution is to go back and do what we just did again and create even more ISIS?
- classicsnoot 11y agoFirst off, at no point did i say we should repeat the mistakes of Gulf II. That was an intellectual leap made by you. Second, i was responding to how blase you seem to be about what ISIS is doing and what they are. I do not know what should be done. My inclination is for volunteers from any country be sent in to keep the peace and pursue these fucking monsters. Not nation states, not governments. Volunteers. And just to be clear. Smurf yes. The US should have a standing policy that if you melt people's faces or destroy priceless historical treasures because your stupid little book told you to, that we wreck shop. But that is childish and far fetched.
- douche 11y agoISIS exists because Islam has a jihadic tradition, and young, disenfranchised men are prone to violent actions. It's not like this is a problem specific to Islam - the Crusades were a similar exercise for christianity (where the Crusade wasn't an outright pirate raid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_Crusade https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_Crusade), and China has historically had lots of rebellions when the population of angry young men gets activated.
