Dealing with ISIS

This political cartoon pokes fun of President Obama's stance on the ISIS threat from the middle east. Although Obama set down 4 straight forward steps as to how to deal with ISIS, lots of uncertainty surrounds the presidents strategy and how it will pan out.
But what I take from the cartoon is that no matter what approach and procedure any political administration carefully chooses to take, it will not fly without heavy scrutiny. In the event of this piece, Americans and other politicians thought President Bush had a foolish plan as what to do in Iraq. The Bush administration decided invading Iraq and putting troops on the ground was the way to go. Now with our current terror being ISIS, President Obama is taking actions that require minimal troops in the region and avoids ground war, and yet skeptics are still speaking loud.
Every terror threat or situation that requires American intervention is extremely unique, and when each individual event is analyzed and understood by governmental decision makers, the best course of action is offered. Regardless of what measures are taken, not every American with political opinions will be appeased. I believe it is beyond important for the US to have a concrete plan in place to deal with foreign aggressors that are taking American lives and may one day plot to kill lives on our own soil.

An average plan with a couple flaws is probably better than no plan at all.

My opinion remains that attacking ISIS is the best idea at this point. If we can figure out a way to do that while not compromising a large number of American lives, then excellent. I am not sure if training Syrian rebels is a good thing, because of the fact that training certain groups has backfired on the US in the past. Eliminating ISIS is the way to go and hopefully the "plan" works in the favor of the United States of America.
