It's the Batman vs. Joker in society debate
You create a Batman to defeat the run-of-the-mill criminals as a symbol, you create a Joker to raise the stakes. You kick out Saddam in the name of democracy, and you destabilize the ME and give rise to ISIS. Some argue that you're better off never going to that next level, because there will always be unhappy/angry/mental people to take advantage of it. So if the Western powers cleaned out ISIS, would it just finalize the Christianity vs. Muslims narrative and lead to something worse? I don't know enough to address what Muslims are doing to counter ISIS. [Post edited by WestyHokie at 07/18/2016 12:53PM]
