Typical bullshit from John.

The moment we start locking the ISIS folks in cages and burning them alive, I'll worry about being "deligitimized". Until then. let's recognize evil for what and who it is, and deal with it for what and who it is.

I'm sure that the ISIS crowd isn't posting messages on Political forums worrying about how they treated Kayla Mueller. Nor am I suggesting that we need to be like Jordan and go "eye for an eye" with ISIS either. But its seems like a damn shame that we dicked around with them for a year and incurred a dead hostage before finally recognizing they were at war with us and - maybe - responding to the threat that ISIS represents.
