As an Operation Iraqi Freedom Veteran, I'm sick and tired of seeing the destruction ISIS is creating all over the world. Their whole legitimacy as a "state" is contingent on them controlling physical territory and acting as a nation-state. They will not go away and will continue to cause mayhem and destruction. We take away their territory, we take away their legitimacy. We need to lead an international coalition and declare full war with boots on ground. There is no other choice, humanity is at stake.
