On an "apple vs. orange" lane switch.....ISIS radicals here at home/returning home may well pose a massive direct threat to the US/UK.
Undoubtedly, we've been bombing them.

They won't be blowing up train stations in Buenos Aires or Helsinki though and I reckon I know why biggrin
Now come on K; they had us in their sights long before the first bomb fell. Being Infidels was plenty enough incintive for that.
The world has many countries run by infidels, but only a very few are at any risk, We know why that is right?

You and I are smart enough to be able to correlate the countries at risk to the countries that insist upon intervening militarily.

You're right of course because i'm kinda arguing for closing the stable door after the horse has moved state. frown
We should also afford equal correlation to the fact that certain nations personify the values and traditions that draw Muslamic wrath. Others being hit may not "make the point" quite as well. On your stable door point; I am not sure a door can be closed that tightly.

It is crap such as this that will ensure a homeland strike. "The black student leader"? Do you have a "White or Asian or Indian Student Leader"? How about a just having a "British" Student leader?

The UK has got a serious problem when right-on idiots like her can mobilize enough support amongst the pc brigade that they can even stop the condemnation of religious bigots and mass murderers. What with hundreds of activist supporters racing over there to commit mass murder, nutters bent on domestic carnage in the name of Allah, flag waving mobs taking over their estates and now large numbers of apparently sympathetic students who think ISIS is OK, 'cos they is Muslims innit. Some of them set up to enter and skew British politics in short-order, no doubt.

Hmmm. So basically, in the ME, everybody dislikes somebody, unless they're Chinese.

Weird.

You may remember that Trinidad had a Muslim coup a number of years ago. Well these radicals are now fighting for ISIS too.

For those of small brain thrust from the Daily Mail to the intellectual pinacle that is the Times of Israel rolleyes the writer includes a summary:

"What do all these numbers mean for the current US campaign against ISIS? Public opinion can be fickle, but for now several policy implications emerge from this analysis.

First, Washington and its allies need not fear that ISIS might attract a mass following in these nearby Arab societies, or that a strong popular backlash might develop against US airstrikes, or against our other Arab allies in this fight. But second, the United States would be well advised to target its actions very narrowly against ISIS — not against other Islamist groups that have recently come under American fire, and could well add to their substantial popularity as a result. And third, any US overtures either to Assad or to Iran, as potential partners against ISIS, run a great risk both of further alienating the Egyptian and the Saudi publics, and of further inflaming the dangerous sectarian polarization among Lebanese at the same time."

Wait until they get a real taste of the Chinese, then it will be to late. When we have enough of our own oil and let China deal with the ME, they'll be begging for some Uncle Sam. Screw them all.

I agree on overtures to Iran. If the Obama administration goes through with having Iranian militias help fight ISIS, the price owed will be too high. They will demand sanctions be lifted and their nuke program will come to fruition.

You really are silly. hehe Numerous countries, the US included, have offered to build them a free reactor for electrical production. They wants nuke weaponry. Why is it our concern you say??? Since it is known to everyone but infants that Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism, one might like to prevent a third pary Virgin hunter from getting hold of a nuke. If you are not concerned, then you concern me.
