ISIS may be mostly defeated in territory in Syria - that may not equal a disappearance of the organization or sympathizers.
ISIS showed great talent for using the internet and social media to recruit and spread their dogma across the globe. Those lessons have been taken up by others outside of Syria - and won't be lost on new potential Radical islamic threats.
ISIS - in whatever name/form- will continue in a very difficult manner to root out - using social media platforms to spread their message to the vulnerable uninformed.
We have not heard the last of radical islamic terrorism.

But by killing those who have took up arms for ISIS and have actively traveled to support them, you have squashed the weeds from reappearing. I believe in "making martyrs of them." History is filled with forgotten names of people who gave their lives for forgotten causes. Many Muslims have put many Christians, Jews, Hindi and even Muslims to the sword. Those Muslims are irredeemable. Most of their wives and offspring are never coming back a civilized mindset either. Best to end their misery and their future victims' misery.
TM/YR/SC/MM - Please consider adding to the topic - ISIS - instead of off-topic hate.
Thank You

I'd also encourage the mods/admins/owner to have the site software modified so that posts and threads and quoted material by ignored individuals don't appear. I believe it would cut down on the mods workload tremendously.
