ISIS Thread

[Gizmo]

To be honest, I'm against the Western&Friends intervention in Irak and Syria. It's not that I think IS is in its right to spread terror and murder, but I think that the intervention will create more problems than it will solve. Some French chap was kidnapped and executed in Algeria for this, and many terrorist threats came through as well. It may sound a bit selfish, but sometimes it's better not to get involved and to let the problem resolve itself and I'm fairly sure that we (westerners) will have probems because of that.

Arguably the most effective ground force fighting IS right now are the Kurds. The west should allow International Brigades made up off people who want to fight ISIS to leave for Kurdistan and fight together with the PKK, YPG and even Peshmerga.

Woke up to ISIS moving closer to Turkey. As, it was shown on CNN, with Syrian-Kurdish fighters trying to repeal ISIS from moving into Kurdish territory in Turkey. The guy who was filming was next to a bunch of Kurdish run aways who had to leave their homes, all of them were watching the battle from a hilltop in Turkey.

Actually, Greece is very well capable of guarding their own borders, and they indeed do have a strong army. Which is getting modernised even further as we speak.

[Karth]

Its a shame you have all those radicals immigrating, glad I don't live with or encounter that problem here     anyways more than 50 countries have signed up to fight IS.

[ClearlyInvsible]

Yay, more people to pile-drive them.

[EdwardC]

(CNN) -- Not weeks. Not months. Years.

That's how long nations entering the fight against ISIS may need to be prepared to spend on the battle, British and U.S. officials say.

hahahaha if only that was true...

Well, it is, mostly. They have spent nearly a quarter of all the financial aid they received from Europe to modernising their military, which already was fairly well equipped, to the latest armour and marine technology, they are nearly entirely re-equipping their soldiers and spent some money on air defence. Their military size, if I recall it right, is the fourth largest in the EU, after Germany, France and Great Britain and is in better state of repair than the German one.

EDIT: I hereby declare Global Firepower an invalid source, they claim the Netherlands have 47.660 active military personnel, while they actaully have 15.000 less...

GPD is not the profits, it's what they receive. Which is still a lot, but they manage to spend a metric shitton as well.
And I wasn't talking in relative, I was talking actual military quantities and qualities.


Global firepower is an untrustworthy source, they claim the Dutch Military has 47.660 active personnel, while it is actually 15.000 less, around 32.500. They also claim our Defence budget is 7,756,630,273 euros, while it actually is 7.3 billion.

Don't use that site.
