What ISIS Really Wants

So you're saying they'll be wearing throwback jerseys and talking about getting back to when they were THE CALIPHATE DAMNIT!Doogles said:
This. I also liked how their propaganda films show medieval battles because there are specific details in the Kuran about battles on horseback with ancient weapons. They will be so disappointed sitting on their painted war horses, battleaxe in hand, waiting for Ceasar's army to meet them for the final holy war, only to be greeted by napalm wielding unmanned aircraft.brchco12 said:
So you're saying Hitler was a good recruiter and won alot of off season natties and was a couple unfortunate plays away from being undefeated.Tequilla said:

In my ignorant view, let's satisfy all the people that say we mettle too much in worldly affairs and sit this one out for a time. Let France, UK, surrounding middle eastern countries in imminent danger to be invaded handle their own shit. Or, as we like to say, LIPO.ThomasFremont said:After reading this, I am convinced that al-Qaeda is still a bigger threat to America.
But if these ISIS dicks wanna dig in and put up a flag, I say we bomb them back to the stone age that they so desperately crave.
The last even remotely comparable threat that I can think of that has any kind of similar elements is the rise of Hitler to power in Germany in 1933.
The position of Europe was to stand back, try to negotiate, tell Hitler he was a bad person and that he needed a timeout. Hitler smiled, said ok, and then invaded all of them.
The US position at the time was to stay out of it because it wasn't their fight. They only got involved when they had to.
If you don't realize how close Germany was to taking out all of Europe, then I don't know what to tell you. They were an air battle victory away from being able to conquer England in what was a massive upset in the grand scheme of things. They ran into the worst Russian winter since Napoleon tried to invade Russia during their invasion attempt. If you don't think that Hitler wouldn't have used an A-Bomb had he had the ability to do so in 1940 or the winter of 1941/1942, then you have your head in the sand. And don't forget in that situation, that while he had the leading German scientists working on such a bomb, the scientists also did a good job of sabotaging their own work and finding ways to delay their production so that it wasn't available to be used.
In particular the last part, you will not have that type of reality in place when it comes to ISIS.
Heil Dude Brah
back to the topic at hand. I don't see ISIS in their present state of overzealous piousness ever pulling the region together in a way that would challenge the western world. It seems like we've gotten the rabid dog to chase it's own tail. Now alot of this blood is on our hands for creating the vacuum that allowed ISIS. But it really seems that they're fracturing the Muslim world with their legalism. Ala negadawg/posidawg eating of their own.
As long as there is a standing army with land we can bomb their asses into the sand and they can be martyrs. Boots on the ground would be playing into their hands in my opinion. I'd rather drone their shit to death and watch them flounder. A stagnant caliph is a failing caliph.

They're gonna bring in a caged fat Italian in a track suit to pump their troops up in practice.brchco12 said:

I think the point you are trying to make is Hitler DNGAF and ISIS DNGAF.
Other than that, I'll have to drop the hanky and send it up to the replay booth which needs conclusive evidence to overturn the call on the field.

Hitler laughed at those that thought that words would slow him down. ISIS clearly has made it clear that they will not negotiate.
Who knows what the ISIS end game is.
We know what Hitler did. We can look back at history and realize that there were a few concrete events that could have changed the course of history in the other direction. Our policy of staying out of the fray (prior to Pearl Harbor) could have come back and bit us in the ass very easily.
The lesson from that is to not wait for things to completely go off the track before getting involved and squashing something that you can see coming with an at minimum 81% of certainty. Be proactive instead of reactive. -
Disagree, Goebbels would lose his shit with how heavy handed ISIS is. the 1936 ISIS playbook would be crucifying jews publicly rather than hosting the olympics.
ISIS is blowing their load way too fast, before they have enough assets and wealth to create a true global issue. -
Yeah, but we really suck at occupation. I rather have a predictable enemy in power who murders terrorists as a byproduct of its insanity than some other organization that utilizes the modern world in dangerous ways.Tequilla said:

I guess my fear is, we blast ISIS, botch the rebuild, leave, and some other group rises from the ashes just as militant, but evolved and focused back on the west. -

And I'm not claiming to be an ISIS superiority guy ...
Nor am I claiming to be a foreign policy superiority guy ...
What is clear though is that at least the public comments and perceptions coming out of the Western World would suggest that their not really in tune with the radical nature of what ISIS is pursuing. Probably also fair to say that they are underestimating them. It's a dangerous recipe when you aren't aware of your opponent and underestimate them. -
This thread is starting to deliver. It just needs Harv to stop by and poont out that the CALIPHATE is forever buried under the manboobs of it's pedophiliac former prophet.
