Re: Just how would you defeat ISIS?

IS is a criminal organization that hides behind politics and pseudo-religion in attempt to legitimize their actions and seek new recruits. The best antidote is good police work and discretionary warfare, with all fireworks kept to a minimum. A heavy bombing raid is not my idea of being discreet.

When I read the initial comment about B-52 strikes as a solution, I thought it was sarcasm and clearly intended to be a joke.

I cannot think of a faster way to swell the ranks of terrorists than flattening entire neighborhoods with air power, on the off chance that one face on a wanted poster might be home.
