$16.6billionAmount the U.S. intelligence community proposed to spend on counter-terrorism in fiscal 2013.
From Paris with Love’ Emotive notes written on US missiles heading for ISISUS war jets have pounded Islamic State targets in Syria using bombs inscribed with ‘From Paris with love’ messages in revenge for the deadly Paris terrorist attacks.By TOM BATCHELOR
Does it still seem imaginary?
Re: Is democracy really the best form if government
US was funding operations vs IS LONG before Paris.
Re: Is democracy really the best form if government
Western nations are a coalition and support each other. USA was involved in extracting revenge after Paris attack. How many billions do you think are spent protecting us from terrorist attacks. A picture of a drowned Syrian boy resulted in millions of refugees being allowed into Europe, similarly, San Bernardino attack resulted in Trump ascending to popularity.
Why can't you apply to same logic to countries at war with US? They consider American bombings to be terrorist attacks. They are also doing what they can to supposedly protect themselves, whether it is in the form of ISIS or another terrorist group. Because they don't have one organized militant group to fight America, they use smaller regional groups to fight or plot against us. Sure, they have religious agenda and they find Jihad noble. They are fighting anyone who will stop them from carrying out Jihad but those terrorist groups rose to power due to American failed foreign policies.

They amped it up a lot higher after Paris. I think they resolved to end ISIS after Paris and floods of refugees. They will make it a safer place to end refugees flooding Europe.

They amped it up a lot higher after Paris*. I think they resolved to end ISIS after Paris* and floods of refugees. They will make it a safer place to end refugees flooding Europe.
How's that going?

I don't believe in right and wrong all I am saying is that if you are an enemy of a society you shouldn't be living in that society. People whose loyalties are with ISIS or Taliban should not be allowed to be respected citizens here. The violent cleric in the UK who incited Tunisian terrorist attacks is living on welfare in a big house courtesy of taxpayer.
If countries want to go to war with a country that can annihilate them in under 10 minutes then I wish them good luck.

I think the end is near and we will soon see peace, Russia wouldn't withdraw without some agreements. Main motivator for them to stop influx of refugees.

So US backed questionable 'rebels' to stop Assad, helped stoke a war that killed hundreds of thousands and create ISIS, but looks like Assad will be staying and all this aggro for nothing.
Some policy you seem to be in awe of!

Dude, I don't support ISIS or Taliban but that doesn't mean I should blindly agree with everything my own government does. At the same time, I don't pledge allegiance to any country. Many US citizens don't agree with American foreign policies. It's the same patriotism that made WWI and WWII happen, people following their leaders blindly! Don't believe everything you see on TV. You have so many resources at your disposal. Use them and educate yourself so you see the real picture and not one that's painted by politicians.
No one owns the world and I pay my taxes. :)
Re: Is democracy really the best form if government
How are the Arab kings legal? Why are they supported by US? Saddam being legal or not has nothing to do with any other country.
There is a universal declaration of rights if a population is being massacred then international community can intervene with force. Similar to what happened in Bosnia.

And then help stoke flames in a war which kill half a million people and create the scum ISIS and also leave aforementioned murderer in charge when all is done and said.
Fantastic policy!

Maybe you should look at the concept of social contract, it is gods earth but if they catch you crapping on the street you get fined. I came here because I made a choice about the society I want to be a part of. I will not identify with people who justify or condone planting bombs in public venues. My children are a part of this population.
Bolded is a very naive statement. There has been genocides of people who thought that.
Re: Is democracy really the best form of government
Best form of govt would be where Allah is the sipreme power and His rules are the laws but humans have other ideas
Give me one example in last 1500 years where such form of govt was truly formed and proved itself to be an ideal form of government?

So you judge other countries by one set of rules and yourself by another? I am a law abiding citizen and I am entitled to my own opinion and perception of this world. I am not going to blindly believe anyone or anything. I have a brain for a reason.

Might will always rule and I am not in awe of anything, all I know is that actions have consequences, the consequence of depraved middle eastern man molesting German girls en masse is that hundreds of thousands will be deported. If moderate Muslims wont stand up against radicals then we will be grouped with them and sent away. I really like it here and don't want to go.

If people rape and slaughter each other and blame it on foreign powers, I wont accept that. Obama did not stand there and hold Aminas legs while Abdul raped her. They are accountable for their actions. Did Obama incite Imam Mecca to call for genocide of Shiaas?

What does this have to do with what we have been talking about? You seem to think America came after the Middle East because of rapists and murderers. LOLOLOLOL.... Why is a muslim rapist different than a christian rapist? Why do you judge them by their nationality or religion or race?
YES, all actions have consequences. If US thinks it will have no backlash because what it has been doing in the Middle East, it's WRONG. Their actions too have consequences.

So rapes don't happen in America? genocides don't happen in other countries? The biggest genocides in history were carried out by Western countries. A murder is a murder no matter who commits it. You can't stand with evil while protesting against evil. That's hypocrisy.
