The ISIS Megathread

"Almost all male U.S. citizens, and male immigrants living in the U.S., who are 18 through 25, are required to register with Selective Service. It's important to know that even though he is registered, a man will not automatically be inducted into the military. In a crisis requiring a draft, men would be called in sequence determined by random lottery number and year of birth. Then, they would be examined for mental, physical and moral fitness by the military before being deferred or exempted from military service or inducted into the Armed Forces."

https://www.sss.gov/fswho.htm


So much for gender equality either, only men having to register.

from your same link

CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTORS
Men who would be classified as Conscientious Objectors if they were drafted must also register with Selective Service. If a draft begins and they are called, they would have the opportunity to file a claim for exemption from military service based upon their religious or moral objection to war.

so what is your point, exactly?
 
what's your point LB, who really cares. it is known there are isis members from all over the world. BIG deal. they will get what's coming

i think a lot are from Belgium iirc, not being racist or anything, but those are off stats with highest KNOWN recorded. could be complete wrong. doesn't even matter. you can't blame the action of 100 to 1000 persons for a whole country. as pointed out before those that join Isis are rogues

Kurds are very well-trained / experienced and in that terrain beengoing for so long good luck to them. hopefully they can just push 'em(isis) out away from their civilians
There's also many(50?) Canadians'(mostly) civilians. who have gone over to help the kurds fight isis

When they return back to Europe and America they will not be peaceful citizens. They will likely continue the bloodshed over here. We can only pray they never come back. Of course if you revoke someone's citizenship people like Paranoid Android throw fits so I'm not sure what to do.

My point as I stated before was it doesn't sense to come America or Europe for better life to escape war, then rush out of the country to join the war in Syria. In a way this war is great for the Western World, it gets all the crazies from our countries flying over to Syria to be target practice for Assad's snipers. The problem arises if they come back alive.
 
Some are going over to roll with the Kurds to help fight Isis and protect innocent civilians.

happens both way. i edited my post

i agree i think they(that joined Isis) shouldn't be allowed to come back. they bought the ticket to start with, they knew it was one-way
 
^Let's not forget the catalyst of this gains.

"After the US-led coalition paved the way with some 50 air strikes, around 8,000 Peshmerga reclaimed some 700 square kilometres."

That helped certainly but it wasn't what turned the tide so to speak. ISIS started going on the run when the Peshmerga finally got on the front lines with the YPG. Before that you had not only the PKK affiliated fighters essentially on their own with little more then assault rifles and sniper rifles but you had the Turkish government also bombing the YPG front lines. Turkey has stopped supporting ISIS as much as they did and have stopped bombing the PKK so that's a good thing for the Kurdish fighters.

A fair number of Canadians seem to be going over to help the Kurds fight ISIS. The people they are most looking for are those with military experience. It's a noble enough fight as the last thing the world needs right now is a Islamic state that's a throwback to the Ottoman Empire essentially. Only worse in their own way i guess.

As for any westerners going off to fight with ISIS i honestly have very little sympathy for them. They remind me of people who join Fascist groups as they fit the same profile which is alienated from society, feel that there life has no purpose and are naive and ignorant as fuck. Noone who can employ critical thinking would ever join ISIS. Also i don't think any westerners going off to fight for ISIS should be allowed to come back. The last thing we need are even more religious nutters because we have enough here as is.

Sorry for any ambiguity but I don't have a problem with anyone going there to fight ISIS (whether it be via Kurdish troops or Assad's).

of course it doesn't. maybe that's why it hasn't happened.

pure fantasy.
 

They went overseas to kill Christians and apostates. Simple as that. People are hellbent on hunting down geriatric Nazi's that were complicit in war crimes of 60 years ago who were following orders which had they disobeyed they would be killed. Flying halfway across the world to kill infidels and wreck havoc in Syria is clearly psychopathic behaviour and you're idea that they will be peaceful citizens is laughable.



of course it doesn't. maybe that's why it hasn't happened.

Yep, never happened I'll take your word for it. It isn't reported in the liberal media because they refer to immigrants who're granted citizenship for refugee situations as "Americans" or whatever "European" country their from, Belgian, Italian, German, it's laugable. If they are English or Italian, then I'm African.

We had the Chechen Russian's here that blew up the Boston Marathon, they came as refugees and recieved hundred thousand in benefits and rewarded America's generosity with bloodshed of innocent citizens.

pure fantasy.

Yep, people with radical ideologies flocking toward's an imminent death is a bad thing. We need more of them in our safe communities.
 
Captain straw man strikes again. Do you ever post anything that isn't a fallacy?

If so, please cite examples.

Show me examples of people who have gone to fight for Islamic state and returned to bring violence with them, as per your very own claim.

You made the assertion, kindly back it up, please.

Who, exactly, are you talking about?
 
Not looking of shit for you, waste of time. Like trying to teach philosophy to a mentally handicapped child.

They go overseas to kill innocent people, to throw gay's off of buildings, to stone women to death for adultery, to behead apostates, that is undeniably what ISIS is. To think as soon as they return to Europe they will be docile is laughable. As for returning ISIS members, some have their citizenship stripped, others are jailed. The war in Syria is going on, most haven't tried returning to Europe yet plenty of Christians to kill in Syria still.

You want me to use Google to show you who the Boston Bomber is? The Russian guy? Use it yourself.

Cite me where every "European" ISIS members is actually a native born European. Go ahead.
 
^ as opposed to US-born soldiers who commit atrocities in action overseas?

[edit: let's try not to get in insult matches, okay?]

Don't get snippy with me just because you can't show any proof of your claims. If you want to convince anyone, the onus of proof lies with you.

Don't be lazy and make empty proclamations like fox news. Don't be weak and get mad when a modicum of critical attention is directed at you. Is that not what you actually want? If not then what are you doing here? I'm genuinely curious about the answer to that.

Who are "they"? Are they recent refugees as you originally claimed or someone else? Are these people going to perpetuate the terror they were fleeting as you asserted or not? Just so we know, what are you actually talking about? What are you trying to communicate?

Help me understand you, what do the Boston bomber or "the Russian guy" have anything to do with your claims, the subject of our discussion?

I never claimed you said that.

Every one of these are strawman fallacies. Do you know what a strawman fallacy is?

How about funding terrorists? Y'know, like Irish-Americans helping to fund the IRA?

Yup and about half their weapons came from America as well. If you look at videos of the Provos 70's era on you won't see them holding Ak's nearly as much as you will see them holding Armalites especially AR-18's. In turn the Provos passed on weapons and training to groups like the PLO, ANC, the ETA and in the latter years the FARC. But that was after peace broke out so i guess a few mercs decided to make some money training the Farc. So yes white people can be labeled as terrorist too no matter how noble their cause.
 
the gall on this guy to cite "fairness". ffs, if you want to talk about mandatory service, take it to another thread. military service is not a requirement of every citizen right now, so you can either love it or leave.


another faux news style broad and generalised declaration with no semblance of truth or knowledge of history. american ww2 crimes have been criticised and condemned from the start.

mate, just stop it. stop making shit up.

Your blatant racist and socially limited views have become beyond reprehensible, as any validity or truth has become overwhelmed by ignorance to others. You as a person are just SLOPPY.

referring to lostwhitey... los.. whatever

Come on guys, no more bickering. This forum isn't for flame wars, it's for thoughtful opinions and civilized debate.

my posts to lb have been an attempt to keep things thoughtful and away from his uncivilised flaming (of certain demographics). all i'm doing is asking him to substantiate his claims.

The distinction has been made earlier in this thread..the IRA is in no way analogous to ISIS. For one I don't recall the IRA ever threatening America, having in all their years of operation a body count on par with a week of ISIS activity and focusing on military targets more often than civilians as ISIS often engages in wanton killing.

IRA really loved civilian and commercial targets.
