ISIS - the cancer of our time

Barack Obama musr have been taught his Mom that short cuts dont pay. Same must have been taught to Bill Chinton and other presidents by their parents. They never learnt what their parent taught them. The worls history also taught that short cuts dont pay. Obama and all presidents before him didnt feel like that is something they needed to learn. To secure the energy security of America, US invade Iraq. This is was not a bad thing altogether considering the atrovities caused by the dictator Saddam Hussain. Any self respecting country will always have some who no matter what would hate invaders and would do anything to throuw them out. That was the genenesis of ISIS. Unfortunately, in its DNA the dream of Caliphate making also got grafted somewhere down the line. If Obama was not in a hurry to withdraw and leave a vacuume for ISIS to fester, this cancer wouldnt have spead to threatne the large part of the civilization. Obama made a campeign promise that he would avoid the cost of maintaining boots in Iraq and fulfilled it without understanding the ramification of the decision. Yes he could, so he did. He saved some money in the short term but now America would spent much more over much longer to surgically remove the canccer that ISIS is. The success of the operetion is never guaranteed specially the kind of surgeon America has proven it self to be. ISIS has no religion. It is using region as means to achive powder for its leaders and their stoogs. Nothing tangible can be be built over sins and so ISIS would certinly fail in their so called mission. Only world meanwhile will pay a deep prices. And larg number of unfortunate people will suffer and many will pay with their lives. They dont deserve it but such is life. I deeply respect Islam and there are many true devout good souls who are muslim. All religions reach emphathy, kindness and value lives. There is one God ad we call them in different names. ISIS is unislamic. Terrosim is a business and takes differen form. The sin is America's too for not being able discharge its duties as single power in thei world. The era of two power, the cosf war days parhaps was better. Unipolar world is more dangerous than ever today.
It is quite clear who will be fighting whom in the thrid world war. The day may not be far unless the root cause of terrosim is elliminated. In the short term military solution is needed but for lasting peace, we need a polotical and societal solutions. This is ean development of the poorer section of the society and a minimal level of quality of live for all so that live becomes worth living for all and the the suicide/death with promise of a sexy life in heaven becomes totality unattractive. This to happen it would take long sustained endeavour. Sadly we havent even started making the blue print for the same.
