Publicizing your atrocities never works out in the end for any one person or organization.

ISIS is writing it's own death warrant with each unjustified murder it carries out. 

That said, for everyone who says we need to deal with this, they must remember that means an additional loss of U.S. servicemembers, it means in an age of cries for tax cuts, we'd be adding to the debt to pay for the destruction of ISIS, and when it's all said and done, there may just be some other group in line, waiting to take their place.

There is no easy answer for all of this and I'm glad I don't have to come up with the decisions on what to do.

I agree with all your insight, however, if left unchecked there is coming a day of reckoning when it may be too late for any of us!

Jordan responds to ISIS murder of Pilot by announcing execution of jihadist prisoners

As responses to terrorism go, this one communicates commitment. After ISIS released video of Jordanian pilot Moaz al-Kassasbe’s murder by immolation — which apparently happened weeks ago — the kingdom of Jordan has announced that all jihadist prisoners will be executed as soon as possible, beginning at dawn tomorrow with the woman ISIS wanted released:

    Jordan will execute Wednesday an Iraqi would-be suicide bomber on death row and other jihadists after having vowed to avenge the murder of a Jordanian pilot by Islamic State jihadists, an official said.

    “The sentence of death pending on… Iraqi Sajida al-Rishawi will be carried out at dawn,” the security official said on Tuesday, speaking on condition of anonymity.

    Rishawi, the would-be bomber, was condemned to death for her participation in deadly attacks in Amman in 2005, and IS had offered to spare the life of the Jordanian fighter pilot, Lieutenant Maaz al-Kassasbeh, if she were released.

    “The death sentence will be carried out on a group of jihadists, starting with Rishawi, as well as Iraqi Al-Qaeda operative Ziad Karbuli and others who attacked Jordan’s interests,” the security source said.

    “Jordan’s response will be earth-shattering,” Information Minister Mohammed Momani said earlier on television, while the army and government vowed to avenge the pilot’s murder.

In fact, King Abdullah II has cut short his visit to the US to get back home, presumably to be present for the executions. A group of US Senators expressed their condolences and solidarity with Abdullah at a meeting this morning just after the news broke:

Hammurabi's code and the Jewish Torah were to limit and restrain retribution....because those are the only things an honor/warrior culture understands.

For starters, why don't we knock out their satalites, disconnect them from the internet, stop them from recruiting and planning their horrors.  Take out their power plants and infrastructure.  We have to know where their strongholds are or else we have the worse intelligence in the world.
