re: American reporter Steven Sotloff beheaded by ISIS

This makes me very angry

You'd have to nuke Mecca to really get to em.

We could blow up Mecca AND Jerusalem and the world would probably be better off. Kind of a "okay, if you can't share the toy, no one gets it." Kind of thing.

The reason we dropped the bomb on the Japanese is because of the consensus estimates for loss of life were we to invade the island. There is no corollary here in relation to ISIS. Until there is solid evidence of ISIS's capability to cause massive numbers of US casualties, the nuclear option is and should not be on the table. In fact, absent solid evidence that ISIS has developed nuclear capability, we would never consider it.

You totally missed my point. I never said to nuke them. Instead I said that to end this threat we've got to respond to their violence and terror in such an overwhelming manner they realize there is nothing to gain and much to lose from continued hostile acts of terror towards us. This overwheming response IMO should be about two solid weeks of 24 hour a day rain of 500 lb GP bombs from an unending stream of B1s, B52s, and any other aircraft in our inventory capable of reaching their capital and dropping ordnance. Bomb their capital into dust and then scatter that dust in a hale storm of American iron. Make them sit there for day after day huddled in their bomb shelters until they start howling like dogs. And if they try anything else then go to the next city and give it the same treatment.

Is that brutal? Is that cruel? Yes, but if you have a better way to make them stop, I'd love to hear it.

I don't know that I've ever agreed more with a Darth post then his last one. Well put ya hippie.

Exactly!!! They pull this shite...we open the gates of hell on their asses for a few weeks. To give in will only encourage them to do more shite later.

Him seen smiling, laughing, and joking on national tv is just going to give the impression that he doesn't care.

First, I don't like him as President (voted against him both times) and can only think of a couple positive things he's done in 6 years, but you guys are nuts if you think he has to give up a basic human emotion just because there are Americans held captive somewhere.

Second, should I remind you that he was laughing it up at the White House Correspondents' Dinner just hours before the raid to kill UBL. He was doing that to appear normal so as not to give away that something important was pending. I'm not saying that a raid on the ISIS bastards is pending; just saying that snapping a picture of him smiling/laughing during troubling times is not indicative of him not caring about these barbaric murders.

Is there any truth to the reports that ISIS has been studying/infiltrating our southern border?
