We have gangs, organizations, and murderers here in our own land we can't stop. It's an endless battle. It's a true dilema

I hope the people in those countries living in fear stand up and fight for something better. As long as they are our military should help/support them.
Plus if we or nobody else does nothing we will all be forced with that decision and not on my watch will my children or yours live like that. Peace would be great but they want war, so be it.

That's a tough one....when you are living your life and following a god, your god his god what ever. You will do anything against the people who you see as the enemy of your god and essentially your way of life. Religion is a very good thing and in the same breath and very dangerous thing in the eyes of misguided believers. Then add on the decades of Western oppression. Children raise on the belief that Westerners are the Infidel Mohammed spoke of.
These are extremist and to compare them to your average street thug can be costly. There are ex military from many countries joining the fight. Baltic fighters Pakistani and even from the US. About 1800 US citizens some of which Military trained are there to fight.
The ultimate goal is to spread the Islamic Caliphate and they will stop at nothing to see it as the last religion on this Earth.
