Reader comment on item: ISIS' Imminent Demise
in response to reader comment: The Real Threat
Submitted by Anon (United States), Dec 8, 2015 at 15:51
I think one can agree with Dr Pipes' assertion about ISIS in its current form but it is a narrow goal in the grand scheme of things. Without a long term strategy to defeat and defang Islamism we are quite doomed. ISIS will keep morphing from one monster into another. There does not seem to be a coherent strategy for defeating Islamism once and for all from either US or Europe.
