ISIS and terrorists have been committing atrocities for a long time now. How much more can happen before the United States gets more actively involved? Will it take another 9/11 type event before the president finally takes the threat serious. He has a difficult time even labeling them as terrorists in some instances.

There is now proof that ISIS burned a captured Jordanian pilot alive. can the United States still stand by while atrocities like this continue?

Is it time for the President of the United States to become more active in combating the growing ISIS threat? They have made direct threats against the United States, attacked citizens in other countries, and have a growing number of followers globally, including the US.

What do you think the US should do?

The line has been crossed. Too bad the President doesn't have the clout or public opinion if you will to send troops over there.

No it's not. Barack Obama is not the president of Iraq or Syria. You sound like John McCain, ' we need to send in ground troops' . No we don't. Let them fight for themselves for a change . . . the president is right. If you were a bit older you'd know that !!

With all 34 years of my existence, I do understand that the President does not have to send ground troops. But in this post 9/11 world you can't seat idly by and not do anything. The President can't send ground troops because he does not have public opinion or enough political clout to commit to another war. It would ruin everything he [POTUS] worked for the last 6 years
