      He should get the CIA to throw a big terrorist party and invite all of them to it, promising Pin the Tail on the Great Satan, and lots of virgins. Then when they get there, nuke them all and say "Gotcha!!!"

      If it doesn't work, he can blame Bush.

        Actually, ISIS is entirely on Obama, thanks to the previously mentioned Jordan training camp he set up....but that probably won't stop him from blaming Bush for it as well.

          Apparently the solution to getting rid of the terrorists like ISIS is to send women in to kill them (or maybe put dresses on all of our soldiers)

          They believe they won't go to heaven and get their 72 virgins if they die at the hands of a woman.

            The community organizer is busy right now trying to change the topic to global warming, which is, to him, a MUCH more immediate and devastating threat than some hoodlums who like to saw the heads off of journalists, and generally kill, maim, destroy, rape and plunder.

              Hm, wait a second. He's a Democrat politician who creates terrorists, then blows them up, and manages to spin it all to make it look like he's the good guy? Well, it's official. Obama is now Frank Underwood from House of Cards.

                  Yes. All military intervention does is destabilise the region in question. ISIL were able to gain power precisely because of the the power vacuum left in the wake of the Iraq war. Saddam Hussein was able to gain power and start wars because he was funded by the US. Just as Bin Laden was funded by the US in the 1980s to fight against the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. It's a never-ending cycle. Better just to leave the Middle East alone and let them solve their own problems. Since destabilisation is the result of military intervention, it is thus logical to presume that additional military intervention will not solve the problem.

                      It'll be back if there's a major win. Not going to hold my breath though.
