Ah the serenity of Western hypocrisy; the same people who mourned the Paris attack victims, screaming "Bloody Mary" at ISIS are the same people who don't care that civiallins on a large scale die in Syria. When the fact is the situations are no different; maybe even a worse situation for the Syrians. So why is the same respect given to the fallen refugees ? Why are they different ?
I'm sorry, Salty, but the situations are very different. One is a terrorist attack aimed at civilians for the purpose of killing civilians. One is the loss that comes with war, a war that was started by Syrians. The loss is sad, but cannot be avoided as long as war keeps going on.
Of course America can defeat ISIS in a year. Because the USA have achieved many great military successes in recent years. Iraq, Afghanistan; hell I'll even throw Vietanm in there. All these countries faced up against the mighty USA with their armies which in comparison looked feeble.
You know, if our leaders wouldn't half-ass wars, then the USA would have a much better track record.
