Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

It is the distribution of the fireworks and their nature.
To enter into the arena without peripheral support of the majority of surrounding countries, would I think be madness.
To control an entity like ISIS seems to me to need massive ground forces and cooperation of the population.
Attempting to bomb ISIS or similar "organisation" into submission has a slim chance and leads to its dispersion through the M.E. and further.
Also, it breeds resentment, which will stimulate many to seek revenge.
=-=-==-=
One of the problems with Ireland and the recent Balkans wars was based on resentments bred in Ireland in the 1900s (and before) and 1939 -45-50 periods in "Yugoslavia".
They wanted to get their own back, as well as "equality" of "rights".
Killing each other didn't settle the disagreements. A mutual gain from a bloody awful situation and tiredness or exhaustion did so.

lest you should be attempting to do so, you really can't draw a parallel between ireland and syria, nor really between the balkans and syria
i confess i know very little about IS, but they certainly would not appear to have been invited into syria or any of the surrounding areas ..... further, IS appear to be even more loony than the taliban or al qaeda .... i was going to add the mahdi, though the initial cause there was to kick out the turks, with the imposition of fundamentalist islam also at the forefront of the agenda

The underlying motivations, driving forces, emotion are the same in all those situations.
Distorting them to motivate others to "action" and "seeming gains" varies from "leader" to "leader".
The problem with beliefs and ideology is the layers of primitivism that they cover up!
Resolving those "conflicts" needs finding a common, recognisable and acceptable gaols.
Difficult.

please explain with reference to IS
for myself, IS's end goal looks even more vague than that of the leader of the mahdi revolt
============
recognisable and acceptable gaols
perhaps guantanamo would make a good model :-)
more seriously, IS is at odds with all other than its own adherents, who really aren't numerically great, and assuredly not with the populace of syria, as highlighted by the numbers fleeing the country

A goal sometimes turns out to be a gaol!
-=-=-=-=
the thought of one terrorist blowing up a "building" in London is sufficient to keep the government on edge. Numbers aren't always necessary.
Besides the threat of ISIS and its thugs always reminds me of BNP, UKIP and looney left and neocon followers. Their herd instinct take over, although thankfully at the moment in the UK there is restraint.
Did all Germans believe in fascist ideology, did all Russian believe in communism?
No but the went along with it to save their own lives.
I suspect the same in Syria etc.

Not sure where the answer is with ISIS.
But I would have thought a suitable starting point would be it's backers, the powers that be surely know where the money is coming from. (everyone else seems to)

sorry to say, but i suspect that a lot of IS money emanates from saudi where there is a strong fundamentalist clique

I would be very careful. When you look for reviews you will find plenty giving very similar glowing testimonials. I did whois queries on the web sites and it is clear that they are all created by the same people. It looks like the reviews are written by Magnum Options themselves.

You could trade Toblerone, but that is a pyramid scheme.
