Seems reasonable. Just substitute God for Allah and Jesus for Mohammed and we could adopt the same in the US. I wonder where being undocumented in the US would be on that scale.

They are not really muslims or something like that. Real Islam is about love and peace. They world wide phenomenon that infects every corner of the earth, with people killing and maiming in the name of Islam has nothing to do with Islam.

Got that ?

The US is responsible for ISIS. Who thought running around like a bull in a China shop in the middle east was a good idea.

Victim mentality aside, what do you think the solution is here?

I'm on board with the prez on this. Surely they have reason to be so harsh with people when people don't do things they would like for them to do. I mean, after all, no one should deliberately do something wrong, and if they do it by accident, or without intent, well, that will just teach other nice folks to be a lot more careful. Right?

Recognizing we are at war with Radical Islam and start wiping them from the face of the earth with no mercy.

US foreign policy created ISIS, just as it created Osama Bin Laden.

You lot were told that destabilising Iraq would cause this sort of thing. ####### me sideways if that isn't exactly what has happened.
