The French attack

[Nebe]

There is no military solution to this problem. Has any one actually listened to what they want ?? They want western military to leave to area. Seems simple enough, no?

I don't think bombing them does all that much. I'm pretty sure that ISIS was prepared for that when they planned the Paris attacks.

You have to have infantry go in and kill all of them. But it's hard when the rats scurry and melt into the general population.

That's why, from the perspective of prevention, it's important to seal the borders and keep a close eye on them (that means profiling) and booting the rabblerousers out.

Bring back the guillotine, while we're at it.

Do you really believe that if the west removed its troops, the jihadists would lay down their arms? They hate everything we stand for, they hate that we let our womed go to school and we don't foirce them to dress like ninjas.

Israel made massive concessions, they turned over parts of Gaza, and they removed Israelis from disputed settlements. Yet the conflict goes on.

Nebe, if I thought a troop withdrawal would end the bloodhshed, I'd support it. There's no reason to suspect it would.

As Rockhound said, all options suck, but some suck less than others.
