I think he's right,and I think the only reason ak47s aren't involved is the fact we have a body of water between us and mainland Europe.

Being my point.

Obviously I don't mean in comparison with an industrialized nation's armed forces. I mean in comparison with any other terrorist group, criminal enterprise, cult, or what have you. I'd wager there's no group on earth that combines, on one hand, such a high level of fanaticism or sheer lunacy, with, on the other hand, such high levels of organization, military-like discipline, and such quantity of supplies.

Not intentionally.
What's scary is the fact that somehow the combined might (pretty much) of the Western world cannot beat ISIS after how many years has it been now?
This to me is scary.

Two societies that descended into decadence and moral turpitude. The parallels are frightening.

That is a misrepresentation of the truth.
We are slowly defeating them whilst committing the minimum troops and equipment.
The West does not have the stomach for a bloody war where lots of our troops come home in coffins right now.
This way, we the politicians avoid unpopular casualties because less of us die.

Where did I say that? No more justified than UK/US governments etc (voted in by their own countries citizens) killing thousands of civilians including women and children in a number of foreign countires where they have used military force against the people's will. What you're seeing now in parts of Europe and the UK is a backlash against that military action which has killed so many innocent citizens including children in those countries.

Except it isn't a backlash. ISIS themselves have said that. You're just not listening, because you want to hear anything that sates your confirmation bias.

A large reason was that it was full of foreigners who didn't care about it.
