Not every Japanese was an IMPERIALIST, yet, we firebombed Tokyo and we NUKED Nagasaki and Hiroshima.

Sometimes you DO what is necessary to end evil...simple.

If we don't CRUSH this, and CRUSH it so it never festers again, we will be using extreme measures, in an extreme method in the very near future. It is called PRE EMPTIVE for a freakin reason....

Oh, BTW, ISIS Stands for Islamic STATE, so therefore the "caliphate" or area currently occupied by the "state" is a NATION STATE......

Destroy it......and I would not do it with carpet bombing.....I'd use theater NUKES......

Yep, apples and unicorns once again. Let me break out the crayons and 'splain it to you.


I agree with you 100% that Isis needs to be stopped (as in dead, all of them). However, that so called "nation state" is occupied land. What you suggest would be along the lines of the Allies nuking Paris during WWII after the Nazis took over. Hey, its all Germany now. I believe that you'll find the vast majority of the people who live in Isis controlled areas would much prefer to have Isis gone. Why do you insist on the need to nuke a bunch of innocent people who are sympathetic to our goal in the hopes of killing a few Isis members? Makes no sense. Isis is an ideology, not a nation. You cannot nuke an ideology. Now, if we let them get a foothold somewhere, they will become a nation. None of us want that.
