ISIS has been defeated...
...in an alternate reality.
http://time.com/5504522/mike-pence-isis-speech-syria/
Quote:Vice President Mike Pence is claiming that the Islamic State “caliphate has crumbled” and the militant network “has been defeated.”
But his comments Wednesday in a speech at the State Department came shortly after the U.S. military said American service members were among those killed during an explosion during a routine patrol in Syria.
Amateur hour at the white house continues.

RE: ISIS has been defeated...
Why don't we just get out and let them kill each other?
Never fight a war that you don't intend to win, and never, never, never, never fight a war that you don't want either side to win. When your enemies are committing hari-kari, don't stop them. Here we have two enemies killing each other. Do what we can to protect the Kurds, the one group that we have truly screwed in this, and otherwise GTFO and stay TFO.

I guess the Nazis were never defeated either since anyone who is not a progressive is a Nazi.

At least progressives share a collectivist/redistributionist economic philosophy with commies--and socialists and fascists, for that matter. That's certainly a closer tie than anything that conservatives--or at least libertarian conservatives--share with Nazis.
