Limited Light at the End of the Daish Tunnel

Not to make a too fine point of it, ISIS/ISIL/IS has been undercharacterized before and many months/years later, they are just as tediously reminding us that they do not intend to go away, establishing some kind of quasi caliphate from which to wage an Islamically based terrorist campaign that they hope will lead to a world-wide (ummah) reign of terror. One need only guess who is behind all of this.

That being said, if, in fact, there were a true resolve to quash this poison on the world's supply of humanities, like a UN that actually works to protect peace instead of protecting its bombastic affront against any truth in international politics, then a combined effort to quell the violence of ISIL might seriously work.

Yet, America cannot be counted on under the auspices of a Chief Executive who has perfected his technique of allowing others to front the fight while America is being dismantled to fit the 'dreams of his father' while the legacy of the founding fathers is squandered for the lack of a father's love.

So, while it might be true that ISIS/ISIL/IS may seem to have a limited future, unless there is immediate resolve to put this threat down, the futures of so many are already lost and now uncounted futures are plunged into a darkness that will take multiple generations to return to the light when that time comes.
