Everyone is horrified etc but, in the best of American traditions, we will not actually do anything until ISIS strikes us here at home--which they are guaranteed to do by the way. Right now, our ostrich / head in the sand policy lets us pretend we're doing something when we're not really solving the problem.
Ultimately, US ground troops will have to go back to Iraq and eliminate (ie a nice word for saying "kill") ISIS root and branch. The Rules of Engagement will also have to be drastically overhauled to actually let us win. When the enemy is terrified of American response, they will stop. Right now, except for the occassiainol air strike, I think ISIS is amused by the impotence of America.
Too bad we didn't keep the 20,000 troops behind ... this all would have been avoided.
