#2 Islamic State is a challenging foe. To defeat it, the US must be willing to confront Islamism. And it must be willing to fight to win. In the absence of such determination, it will fight and lose, in the region and at home, with no allies at its side.

Champ has absolutely no intention of 'defeating' ISIL or Islam. His actions against the threat are little more than political theater. He is Mooslim first, his citizenry is simply a thinly veiled cover for action. His fellow shadow gov't handlers and facilitators, people like Brennan, Valjar, Rice, Holder and others share his beliefs and goals. Statement such as "ISIS is not Islam" clearly betray his true intentions.

#4 In my opinion let them cross the border. Give them welfare. Best weapon to nullify their cause. Talk is cheap. Action requires effort. Export left ideas over there and like a cancer destroy enterprise and hard work efforts. Why fight for anything if you have your pot and drugs. Appears the best way to manage a population. Then of course free abortions. Then free end your life clinics. 50 years old, 40 years old whenever. Free choice and expand planned parenthood. The left has always felt there are too many people in the world. Young adults are committing suicide now in greater numbers than ever it appears to me. Every week here in my area and my area is a small community.

#5 As Boston demonstrated, they'll be attracted to the usual Big Blue city hand outs and prefer not to venture too far to engage in their mayhem and wanton display of war against the infidel. The Big Blue culture, as shown with Obama, will refuse to acknowledge the problem. Rinse and repeat. What's the down side? Think of it as turbo charging the Darwin effect when entities are unable to adapt to a changing environment. It'll speed up the 'Detroit' effect for these cities.

#6 In the first instance, the women who leave the West to join IS have no qualms about entering a society in which they have no rights. They are happy covering themselves in black from head to toe. They have no problem casting their lot with a society that prohibits females from leaving their homes without male escorts. They have no problem sharing their husband with other wives

Are these the same women who would be protesting that the government should be providing birth control and who think the conservatives have a "war on women?"

#7 In most cases I think the women in question are young and haven't really thought it through. I suspect a week or a month later they'd be begging to come back.

We are better off without them. They should be forced to renounce their citizenship in order to leave.

#8  I suspect a week or a month later they'd be begging to come back.

And how, pray tell, is that to be accomplished in a militarily aggressive totalitarian society? We haven't yet invented Star Wars beaming technology, even if it can be seen on television.

#9 Congratulations, your application for ISIS membership is approved. You must depart for Syria and in-processing within 24 hours. Readmission to the U.S. is not authorized.
