"Islamic State" and the present bombing spree

Hear here!
Major General Jonathan Shaw, the only sane voice that I have heard on
IS and the present bombing spree.

This is "a battle for the soul of Islam", and it should be left to
them. The involvement of the West is a distraction, a distortion, and
is counter productive.
(Is not democracy a "government of the people by the people for the
people"? )

Some people think of the middle east as an 'oil-rich' area, the source
of much of OUR oil. They forget that it is the homeland of millions of
people who have opted for a way of life and a religion that is
different from ours. Some think our 'homeland security' requires us to
invade their homeland. Golly!
