To be sure, we're damned if we do and damned if we don't. The analogy that Rob was using was apt in that these Daesh f*#kers will take what power and territory they can if left to their own devices.
Their aim is to make this a modern day 'Holy War' between the so called Christian West and Islam. They completely screwed the goat by burning that Jordanian pilot imho. Now, it's Sunni's fighting Sunni. The Shia are being kept away from this internal conflict. I hope the Jordanians are up to the task.
Frankly, the only smart course for us is the one President Obama is taking in this brutal conflict. Drones and airstrikes with no western boots involved.
