Part of me wants to say we need to be bombing and droning ISIS, given all the atrocities it is supposed to have done.

and then I see, in my memory, Powel at the UN.
and I remember hearing the tearful testimony of Iraq or Kurd or whoever, babies thrown from incubators...which later was revealed as a staged hoax.

Today David Cameron was quoted as saying "we have to stop ISIS in Iraq before they come to the streets of Britain"

Now where did I hear that concept before.....?

Hmmm....Communists in Korea
and in Viet Nam
and Al-Kada, where ever it was convenient to picture them operating from

Yeah.... I WANNA say go ahead and bomb the bad guys.....
if only I had not been paying attention over the last few decades, and not reading so much history.
