Let me know how that works out while the military takes care of the problem.
Yes because Jackbooted thugs hauling out civilians and shooting them in the back of the head isn't an Orwellian nightmare.
Oh, wait, that was already tried...where was that...oh yeah,
every dictatorship in history.Do not let these monsters turn you into monsters by over reacting to their scare politics. The whole problem isn't some big bad guy in a far away country. The guys that influenced ISIS and their cohorts are right among us, leading our countries and our military forces. If you truly believe we do not have a hand in creating this monster then you clearly haven't been paying attention to history for the past 400-500 years.
The main problem we have right now is these arseheads making us fear our normal neighbours for the religion they follow. Making us paranoid so we don't have clear heads to follow the actual threats. Yeah there may be a few who have some unreasonable demands, but what we don't do is start locking them up or being violent towards them
before they actually present some actual violence themselves, otherwise we are no better than the terrorists that enact such fears upon us in our lives.
Am I saying we should ignore all danger? Hell, the gently-carress, no. I am merely stating that we do not let the fear and paranoia turn us into worse monsters than those that are far away. We know where ISIS is, we just don't know where their fingers are in our countries. The best way to make them not have influence is to make it a place inhospitable for their fingers to be. As in make their scare tactics worthless. Not with a show of force, because that's what they want, you show them their fear mongering can not touch you, that they have no effect on you.
Then they make the mistakes and they come at you reckless, and then they're easier to get rid of.
Honestly, now that we have an actual deathcount from a terror incident on Western Civilization I wouldn't be surprised if we see NATO article 5 being invoked any day now. They were largely left alone in the middle east because their wars didn't directly effect us, but as we've seen in the aftermath of 9/11, something will break, and something will happen relatively soon
It's going to be veeeeery messy before it's over.
There are going to be riots and possibly civilians being mistreated if it's not handled right.
