Last night it was reported that ISIS OR IS IT ISIL? has given ALL non muslims until Saturday to convert to Islam or die, or be imprisoned or whatever. Now, I surely believe these demons pretending to be human are quite capable of mass murder, so I have to admit that there is a real possibility of a genocide occurring in Iraq.
It's not just Christians that they are targeting though. Just saying. So what can be done about this? I do not believe our Government will do much more than pay lip service to the issue, and I'm not sure any other Government will do anything either. It appears that no one wants to put "boots on the ground" to prevent such a horrific event from happening, and boots on the ground is the only way to prevent it.
I've been thinking about this pretty much all night, and IF I WERE KING...........(President) I would immediately begin to gather all the Military resources possible and station them in the Kurdish governed part of northern Iraq, and begin military strikes against ISIS to keep them busy while other forces assisted all who wished to flee the country. Take them north to the Kurdish controlled part of Iraq, secure them there........providing temporary housing, food, medical attention and such. Then begin to work with the various Western European Nations to try and relocate these people to a safe place to begin to rebuild their lives...........including some of them coming to the US.................
I would make ISIS pay a heavy price.............and I MEAN A HEAVY PRICE for their actions............I would target the portions of Iraq that they control now, and return that area to the sands from which it rose...........every roadway, bridge, building, whatever.............but, now, that's just me...........I would target and eliminate ANY who bore arms against the US and/or attacked non Muslims simply based on their religious beliefs.
I would deal with Saudi Arabia as well. For the Saudis are seriously responsible for a lot of what is happening in the Middle East. They along with Iran.............and IRAN MUST be dealt with as well.
Anyway, I'd probably give rise to a Third World War, but, shoot, we pretty much got a Third World War going on now, what with the insane jihadists running all over the globe trying to murder any they consider the enemy............so.........
