I'm very disappointed in Ted Cruz. He is suddenly pandering to the warmongers in talking about "bombing ISIS back into the stone age". Damn it, Cruz, what part of "protect our borders and don't be the world's policeman" didn't you understand? If those under threat of ISIS cannot gather up the guts to defend themselves then they deserve whatever they get. It has been proven over and over and over again that nobody can successfully fight the battles of someone else who won't fight for themselves. You just waste a lot of time, energy, money and lives and then as soon as you try to hand off control, those under your protection just fold again.
ISIS is no threat to the US. Even if they put a dirty bomb on Wall St, it would still not be an existential threat to us. More than likely it would assure their eventual destruction. But until they attack us, let them go kill their own. Let those people live in the fear that they allowed to happen by virtue of either being disarmed or of being too cowardly to stand up for themselves. This is not our battle and we do not need to make it ours. The world is already dangerously close to global war because of the collapse of the global debt Ponzi and we would be much better off just minding our own very messed up business at this point.
Not to mention the cowardice and inanity of Ted's, for warmongers never fight a war or send their own and the IS is everywhere and nowhere, kind of hard to target, except for wedding parties in the general area for the cameras.
