Acts of war

Since Isis keeps supporting terror attacks against our citizens should we formally declare war against them and wipe them off the face of the earth?

Well there would be a mega hiccup for certain. Because European countries are allowing former ISIS jihadists return. It's crazy but they are allowing this.

So how could you hunt them down?

The US hasn't declared war since 1941, why change warmonger now?

The War on Terror is real and is the longest war the U.S. has had outside of the Korean War that is still on going as there was no official end, only a cease-fire. The War on Terror has been ongoing since 2001 and those who join the military get a ribbon for serving during a war.

It means the US hasn't officially declared war since 1941.... so when the US starts it, it's not official.

Get them out of all Western countries to begin with. Allah will be butthurt, but Western women will not be assaulted and raped daily by filthy, low IQ inbred savages.

Well, We are Clearly in a state of war with them. They sponsor attacks on us frequently. So why not just officially declare war and bomb them into oblivion?

`
Use of the word "war" as in the "War on...." has become 'a metaphor and is a longstanding literary and rhetorical trope. In political usage, war metaphors are used to manage a perceived societal problem, with the concept taking the place of an individual or state enemy in true war.' Congress actually declaring a war against the ISIS, or against organized crime for that matter, just doesn't make sense.

Haven't we been bombing them into oblivion for the past 16 years?

Huh? last time i checked women get raped by the thousands in the US and a small tiny fraction of the preparatory are Muslims. Heck even little kids are raped and killed and none of the animals who did it are Muslims.

Yes, officially declare war. That would instantly place all Islamist combatants under military law, wherein they could be summarily executed, instead of three hots and a cot and the admiration of a sympathetic media.

Lay some Geneva Article 4 on these asswipes.
