Let's see....
The vast majority of Muslims are not violent extremists but the Syrian refugees want to go to Germany and the US, not Egypt or Turkey. Wonder why?
Daesh is not being attacked by the peaceful Muslim majority. They are leaving it to the Europeans and US to do that.
Oil prices are down because of fracking and US production so the Middle East is not raking it in like they were. If it wasn't for the crummy location of oil reserves, the West would never have gone near the Middle East in the first place.
Who benefits from terrorist activity? Arms and aircraft manufacturers, security forces like the TSA, oil producers outside of the Middle East, other religions.
I suspect Alek is thinking of France which will tend to unite, possibly against their Muslim population which is substantial.
I hear that the thing that helps the Daesh most is internet communication via social media like Twitter. It helps them organize and stir up trouble worldwide. Why not disable the internet in Syria and Afghanistan? I don't know how the internet is connected to those countries but one would think that there are a few giant cables entering the countries somewhere that could be disconnected. While the cells of terrorists are located everywhere, I suspect the orders come from some commander(s) who is located in Al-Raqqah or a cave in Afghanistan.
