It looks like President Barack Obama is about to send troops back to Iraq, and maybe to Syria. That's "boots on the ground" — or maybe not.
There may be other factors involved, as well. That's particularly the case because of the barbarous, completely uncivilized, and subhuman behavior of the jihadists who are the Islamic State's "fighters".
It appears we should treat this cancer while we wait, however, rather than waiting for that judgment.
This would be in line with a statement attributed to a U.S. Marine (paraphrased): "It's God's job to judge the jihadists. It's up to us to arrange their meeting."
In the meantime, while we are watching events there, it would also be appropriate to keep in mind who the characters in this Middle East play are.
