Touchy subject, but I feel it is one worthy of a discussion.
- What are peoples thoughts on it all?
- How much of a threat do you think are they?
- Should we interfere?
- Ground troops or air strikes?
etc.. Discuss..
Just seen on the BBC News website about airstrikes deployed by the US, and backed by some Sunni populated countries.
Where I feel the whole situation in the Middle East is waaay out of control, I feel airstrikes are not really the answer.
Me personally I don't agree with any type of violence/warfare whatsoever. But obviously some do.. Driven by greed and power, IS want to turn most of the middle eastern countries into one state, ruled by one government. And are going about it in the most violent and in-humane way possible.

I'll admit to knowing very little about all of this, so I should do some reading. I actually don't watch the news / TV at all, or read newspapers.
I did think it strange at first when ISIS was mentioned, I didn't know if they were talking about Archer the TV series or the band, but then I think global affairs think a little bit bigger than cartoons and post-metal music. Unfortunately.
I'll be back when I've done some reading.
