If the Islamic state gets a foothold, then apart from riding roughshod over any middle east country in it's way, it is committing genocide. That must be enough for us to intervene? We're not talking about one individual dictator to remove for oil purposes. We're talking about protecting human life - there can be nothing more important surely?!
If a significant Islamic sharia state is formed, it can only embolden other borderline extreme muslims to act and press for change where they live...
The message needs to be that religious dominance is not welcome anywhere on this beautiful planet... surely?
People wants most of all what works.
Unfortunately, the appearent failure of secular nationalism in protecting the interests and attaining the aspiration of the, for the lack of better world, islamdom, discredited secularism in the eyes of many Muslims and led to the resurgence of theocratic tendencies.

In reality, almost everything that allows those who lust for power to enjoy power is more important to the power seeker than some other human's life.
