I wonder why we have waited this long.
{I have been wondering for a long time, and continue to wonder.}
Another question could be, what will it take for every country that is against ISIS, to do what it takes to deal with them?
Can anyone tell us what we are waiting for?
I have my own idea's on what it will "take", use your imagination.
I saw this in the paper the other day and thought it was an interesting read.
It's an interview with Jocelyne Cesari http://www.islamicstudies.harvard.edu/faculty/jocelyne-cesari/
"Q: Can the United States really carry through on a pledge to “degrade and defeat” the Islamic State through its bombing campaign?
A: It has to be done, obviously, but it’s not sufficient. They can defeat it in Iraq or Syria, but they cannot degrade it, because if this strong world vision is not addressed, it will always find ground. You might see it next in Yemen, Libya and the Sinai.
Addressing it has to be an international effort that looks at education, history, social media, Internet, and finds out how young people are getting in touch with their Islam. And the U.S. attempting to challenge jihadist discourse online is ridiculous. It doesn’t work. It has to come from young people here."
