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?

on this site it seems the dumbest questions and most ridiculous ideas come from the most senior personnel. if you would research the rise of radical islam you will find that their families live in extreme poverty, so one way the parents can ensure their kids have a good life is to let them go to the midrasas (religious schools) that way they can ensure their kid will get to eat and get some semblence of an education, because those programs are government funded. while in thsoe schools they get radicalized and end up hating america, so if someone was to try to improve lives by providing jobs which will in turn improve lifestyle which will mean theyw dont have to send their kids away which will result in them not becoming radical muslims which will result in less violence.....how is that not a good plan?
noone ever said that military action was not on the table, in case you havent heard we been bombing them for about a year now.
another thought...did taking out the mujahideen solve muslim extremism, or how about the Taliban, maybe it was when we took out Al Qaeda. nah it will be over once we get rid of ISIS
INSANITY - doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different result
food for thought: the religious books that terrorsts use to radicalize people (not the Quran) was first used by the Mujahideen in Pakistan. that book was made and produced by the University of Nebraska. so in essence the book that is used to produce hate towards us was produced by us. those who are not students of history will be doomed to repeat it.

In the history i have come to learn there was a Philippine-American War involving the antics of a Gen. "Howling" Jacob Smith and the "going native" of African American troops. After which the U.S. Government built schools, infrastructures, etc. and Filipinos are now the staunchest American Allies in Southeast Asia. So it can be done with American run schools.
