Can IS only be beaten into submission by Boots on Ground
There seems to be a lot which is difficult to understand, about the problems this so-called IS Caliphate seeks to impose on its followers. If indeed what is published in the papers is a true reflection. It's difficult to imagine why any right thinking person would want to belong. though it appears from what I've read that once you sign up after presumably being radicalised, The only way out is in a Bodybag. So knowing that why would you do it?
I'm not sure if they lure men to sign up in anticipation of co-habiting with the 72 virgins. But if this is true and it happens. I think the pace of it would finish you off in no time at all, unless at the same time you are vested with exceptional powers. So what exactly would be the point of this?
Is there anyone out there who can explain exactly what it is all about in words of one syllable. I'd like to try to understand what motivates the people behind it. So is it just one person or is there a committee of some description? I'm unsure if they wish you to believe it is Allah Akbar.
Now in respect of what President Obama is trying to do, in harness with Dave, assuming the article I defer to is accurate and I've no reason to dispute this. They are using IS opponents to supply the manpower, fixing them up with whatever they need in the way of arms and supplies and lending them an Air Force, which their opponents do not have. So if every conflict of modern times is predicated to succeed, on the back of air-power. They will create a formidable response to roll back the frontiers of something which is extremely difficult to understand, in this modern world.
Seems to me like we're intent on going back to the days of our forefathers 11/13 Century, when Crusades were in vogue. The Caliph tossed a cushion in the air and without moving his Scimitar allowed the cushion to fall by its own weight onto the blade where it fell to the ground in 2 separate pieces. Am I right or wrong? Please advise.
Watch this space, I'll be back.
