Dear God these idiots are actually going to start a war that has no basis.
There is no caliphate.
The ONLY countries at issue is Libya and Syria. Why? Because there is no sovereign government. The rest of the region is stable with the except of Somalia and that has been the case since Bush 43. There is still war in Iraq, but, the real problem is Syria. It needs a sovereign government.
The global community came together recently to act against the propaganda of Daesh. What is there to question? The sovereign governments are in control. Whether or not they are finding every individual attacks is a matter of internal and international intelligence. It is what it is. The stability of the global countries is obvious. They aren't falling apart.
They really should shut up if they can't talk to the reality of the issues. Other than that it is fear mongering.

The Security Council (click here) this morning underlined the obligations of Member States to take steps to prevent terrorist groups in Iraq and Syria from benefiting from trade in oil, antiquities and hostages, and from receiving donations.
Unanimously adopting resolution 2199 (2015) under the binding Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, the Council condemned any trade with the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as Daesh), the Al-Nusrah Front and other entities designated to be associated with Al-Qaida under resolutions 1267 (1999) and 1989 (2011), threatening possible further listings for targeted sanctions under those resolutions.
It affirmed that the direct and indirect trade in oil and refined oil products, modular refineries and related materials was subject to the requirement of resolution 2161 (2014) that countries ensure that their nationals and those in their territories not make assets or economic resources available to ISIL and related terrorist groups.
