"We cannot beat ISIS by killing them"

State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf has stated that the Middle East needs more job opportunities to remove the threat of groups such as ISIS and that killing them will not beat them.

I both agree and disagree with this statement, where if better opportunities existed within the Middle East there would be less individuals fighting with the terrorists, but at the same time, we must remove ISIS to allow those jobs to even been created.

What do you all think?

I am contractually obligated to do nothing more than shake my head in stupefied disbelief.

Great line. I feel patriotically obligated to point out as much of the nonsense as possible without completely causing my friends to label me a hater and thus ignore the message.

I am sure there may be some ROTC contracting jobs out there! However I do wish you luck on getting a ISIS hunting permit. I think they should create a lotto for it soon.
