And I do mean overwhelming. Total war. Use of WMDs. That would stop the problem. However we won't do that. We have moved on past that point since the 1940's. But this area hasn't. And more reserved military action isn't going to sway them. So, since wholesale slaughter is morally reprehensible, the best option is to allow them to come into the rest of the world slowly, and on their own.
With the greatest of respect, have you read beyond the front page of a newspaper? Have you heard of the caliphate? Have you read testimonies of jihad fighters, from the UK who are ready to come back to the UK and die as martyrs?
They are not looking to fight in their own arena, they want to take over the whole world !!!!
I am aware. Frankly I think these people can and should be tried for treason the instant they join ISIS. I think restricting access to this part of the world is advisable until the situation calms down.
I do not think dropping a nuke on them is in any way advisable.
