What do you believe the USA should do to fight ISIS in Syria (or elsewhere)?
1. Tell Turkey to stop bullying the Kurds (who seem way more eager to fight DAESH than the Fascist AKP) and condemn the lack of democracy in Turkey.
2. Stop drone strikes. Malala Tells Obama: 'End The Drone Strikes'
3. Stop supporting the Fascist Saudi and Qatari establishment, many of whom sympathize with DAESH and fund Fascist Imams and televangelists around the world.
4. Stop bullying Iran, who are serious about fighting DAESH. Iran feels threatened by the United States, who have overthrown democratically elected Iranian governments before.
5. Stop the vitriol of the Russian Federation.
Poll finds United States is the biggest threat to world peace.
See, this is the issue I'm talking about here. You're putting all responsibility on the USA alone as if other nations or entities in the world should not be held accountable for what they do. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Do you see Russia the same way as well? They seem more interested in fighting off Assad's enemies (especially those not part of ISIS) than in fighting ISIS itself.
When the USA bombed Japan with nuclear weapons near the end of WWII, it shouldn't have been the Japanese empire to blame for the sufferings of the Japanese people because, after all, they didn't throw the bombs. USA did. Certainly, you agree with this. So apply the same reasoning to the current global situations. It's not USA who just conducted attacks in Paris or in Beirut, it was Daesh. Let's blame them for the damages, not USA.
