A Look At The Islamic State

[88GT]

There is no such thing as [insert any imaginary border name here]... they are all a fabrication of politics.

Not true.

Turkey thinks they'll be immune to ISIS if they stay out of it. ISIS only cares about what ISIS wants and needs. Money and murder is all they know.

Turkey has a real army it would wreck ISIS in a day. They also wouldn't put the kid gloves on doing it either.

I have my doubts about Turkey's abilities. They're waiting too long and when ISIS does show up on their doorstep it's going to be way too late.

Why would it have been locked? We are free to discuss terrorist organisations all day long.

Some of us have been saying the same thing about the U.S.

Can we put boots on the ground here or will that be a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act?
We better just do nothing and hope it turns out well.
Freedom will stay if you don't defend it.
It's so liberating if you think about it long enough.

Oh come now... what could possibly go wrong?

I'd like to keep my status as a slave metaphorical, if at all possible.

When IS gets a navy or intercontinental air force I'll add a minutia of stress. Till then they are a regional threat in the ME and should be the problem of the regional powers, not the US.

 

[findingZzero]

I think it's starting. My google page has been hijacked by Turkiye.

Because there's no evidence of terrorists using commercial jets.

Because there's no evidence of terrorists using commercial jets.

Nor is there anyway for them to simply walk into the country either.

There's probably no chance they have an Internet connection and can issue a "call to arms" for like minded, or weak willed individuals here in The U.S. To try lone attacks!

They've been doing that for ages and nothing's come of it. I'm more likely to be killed by a red Fiat on a Thursday than by terrorists from IS.

How many international airports are in ISIS controlled territory?

So what's stopping them now? Fow as many people as they have, planes should be already falling out of the skies. ISIS isn't and won't ever be a legitimate threat to the US. Their expansion has already been curbed, and they are boxed in by some comparatively powerful militaries. This shouldn't be an American problem.

Right. Because lack of proof it hasn't happened means it can not or will ever happen.

Just like Al Queda and the Taliban have never taken innocent American lives on American soil, right?

That would never happen.
