The whole Syria/ISIS thing has ruined me for world politics. The time to step in was 2 years ago and still nothing. The powers that be don't care how many captives they torture/murder/rape/all of the above. They only care about their massive game of chess and their own hides. BUUT If there was western intervention it would have to be in coalition with Arab nations so it wasn't just "infidels" vs "holy warriors" The people they are hurting most is where they are, nuking would only make us bad murdering [Poor language removed].
 
Some thoughts to share from my sensei on these matters. tl;dr for most, but very illuminating for my feeble mind:

I like this bit personally:

"Unlike pastoral societies when a man might know all the things that mattered, most of us moderns know very little outside of our narrow fields of competence. We compensate by trusting others to know things about which we choose remain substantively ignorant for lack of time. This opens up a tremendous opportunity for Western charlatans to spread entropy for their own narrow, sectarian reasons."
 
Haven't ever really been for military action, but the time for intervention here is beyond question in my eyes. Should have went in 12 months ago and squashed it before it got properly started.

Too many fingers burnt by disasters in Afghanistan, Iraq and, even further back, Vietnam. But that can't stop action being taken if it's clearly needed in the modern era.

But there's no monetary benefit to doing so, so expect nothing to happen.
 

If we can get the majority of them all in one place use one of those Neutron bombs that the US 'got rid of ' ( yeah right ) and/or one of those tailored viruses that only kills 'that sort'
 
I find the ISIS thing genuinely scary compared to any other terrorist group over the past 20 years.

there is no real agenda, they are just killing for the sake of killing. they are taking over towns and nothing is apposing them which the more it grows, the fear by itself will allow them to grow to a massive scale.

and the worst thing is that we do nothing. they are pulling different nationalists in to behead/murder/burn for propaganda because they want a reaction. English/french/american/canadian/jordanian/japanese to name a few and none of these nations are doing anyhting apart from sitting on their arse. They know they can get away with what they are doing and therefore growing as a feared group.

We need to go to war, we need to end this before it cant be stopped.
 
Let's be honest, all us westerners are only really 'armchair' Christians anyway, I mean, wouldn't it be easier if we all joined Islam and put all this nonsense behind us?

What kind of holidays do they get?
