Isis may not make it to the weekend. Let alone 30 years. Just remember how the ussr looked in the 80s. Isis isn't going to thrive like pre 9/11 terrorists. America woke up to those idiots. We have a playbook for them now. And we haven't been the only ones using that playbook.
Terrorism is relatively new. And it thrived in a world where communists backed the anti capitalists. And the capitalists backed the anti communists. Now that America won...and the world has since realized the price of letting these people get trained and run amok...
Sorry. Rambling. Isis won't last. They will be done in for violating sun Tzu. They crossed their own people. We may be able to just blow on them, but they destabilized themselves.
You're assuming ISIS is the end of the terrorists line? I disagree. When/if ISIS is crippled another organization will pop up, then another, then another. Saddam was a despicable vicious dictator, I don't give a rats ass about him. But taking him out was a mistake and it left a huge vacuum in the Middle East that's going to last for decades. Again, the middle east isn't ready for western democracy. They don't want it, and they're not ready for it.
