@ghenleyLast I checked, Obama has ordered air strikes against ISIS. Odds are pretty good we’ve killed more of their team than they’ve killed of ours. The problem is that “we” (including all the other countries) are still trying to play by Marquis of Queensberry rules, while the other guys are engaged in a no-holds-barred street fight. Wide area carpet bombing with squadron after squadron of B52s raining death from the skies around the clock won’t really solve things, it’ll just ratchet up the other side’s body count and build further resentment of The West.

“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”. If more people lived by that rule, the world would be a much better place.

@corpcasselburySo according to the golden rule, If ISIS attacks us, we should attack them. Tell that to Obama.

Rita is totally right with this one. “He who has the gold makes the rules” is exactly how society works and has always worked.
