Peb qhov kev tuag yog huv thiab secular; lawv kev txawj ntse thiab kev ntseeg.
"Nyob rau hauv lawv dag zog los tsim ib tug caliphate thoob plaws qhov chaw ntawm Iraq thiab Syria," CNN qhia rau peb, "ISIS cov tub rog tau tua cov pej xeem thaum lawv hla cov nroog nyob hauv ob lub teb chaws.
"Hauv Syria, cov pab pawg neeg muab qee tus ntawm nws cov neeg raug tsim txom" muab txiav hau rau hauv ncej. "
Lub plab-churning raws li qhov no yog, lub ntsiab lus teb uas nws tau tshaj tawm - kev simplistic maneuvering ntawm pej xeem xav - numbs kuv kom nws ntshai heev, vim nws ntsiag to justifies ib tug loj, tob heev ntshai nyob rau hauv tis. Yuav qev ib nqe lus los ntawm Npeeyamee Netanyahu, qhov no yog qhov kev phem kev phem. Nws tsuas yog ua li cas hauv Teb Chaws Asmeskas tsov rog tshuab xav kom tsim nyog rau tag nrho kev tawm tsam ntawm Iraq.
"Nyob rau hauv lwm tus neeg raug ntes ntawm lub koob yees duab," CNN qhia ntxiv tias, "ib tug txiv neej zoo li raug yuam kom nws lub hauv caug, surrounded by masked militants uas teev lawv tus kheej nyob rau hauv video li ISIS cov tswv cuab. Lawv yuam tus txiv neej nyob rau gunpoint kom 'hloov' Islam, ces txiav nws.
Qhov no yog qhov nruab nrab medieval. Nyob rau hauv sib piv, thaum peb tua Iraqis, nws yog ceev thiab zoo, raws li tsis muaj kev xav raws li ib tug chess txav. Tib yam CNN zaj dab neeg hais rau peb tias: "Cov neeg ua haujlwm Iraqi raug nplawm hais tias tuaj tawm tsam Saturday tua 16 ISIS fighters, thiab ib Iraqi airstrike nyob rau hauv Sinjar tua ib qho ntxiv 45 ISIS fighters, Iraq lub xeev xov xwm qhia. "
Tus ntawd yog nws. Tsis muaj teeb meem loj. Cov neeg tuag uas peb muaj lub luag haujlwm tsis muaj tib neeg zoo li cas los xij, thiab peb tua lawv yog qhov tsis muaj txiaj ntsim xws li tu tawm lub tub yees. Nws tsuas tsim nyog, vim hais tias cov hais mav yog jihadists, thiab, zoo. . .
"Lub hom phiaj tseem ceeb tshaj plaws hauv Teb Chaws Asmeskas tseem ceeb tshaj yuav tsum yog rov qab thiab thim YOG vim li ntawd nws tsis muaj peev xwm tsim kom tau ib tug neeg ua phem ua phem," tus Phab ntsa StreetJournal editorialized ntau hnub dhau los. "Tej lub xeev yuav dhau mus ua ib tug neeg muag khoom rau cov neeg jihadists uas yuav cob qhia thiab tawm tsam kom tua tau lub ntiaj teb. Lawv yuav sim ntaus Americans cov tswv yim uas ua rau ntiaj teb saib xyuas, nrog rau teb chaws Asmeskas teb. Ib lub tswv yim zoo kom muaj ISIS tsis txo qhov kev hem thawj. "
Thiab ntawm no yog South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, hais qhov qub tshaj plaws nrog rau kev sib tham txog Fox News, raws li tau hais los ntawm Paul Waldman hauv Washington Post: Obama qhov "lub luag haujlwm raws li tus thawj tswj hwm yog tiv thaiv lub teb chaws. Yog hais tias nws tsis mus rau lub offensive tawm tsam ISIS, ISIL, xijpeem koj xav hu cov no hais mav, lawv tuaj ntawm no. Qhov no tsis yog hais txog Baghdad. Qhov no tsis yog hais txog Syria. Nws yog peb lub teb chaws. . . .
"Koj puas xav kom Amelikas tawm tsam? . . . Mr. Thawj Tswj Hwm, yog tias koj tsis kho koj qhov tswv yim, cov neeg no tuaj ntawm no. "
Lub xab npab uas dhau rau kev yeem rau kev yawg suab yeej tsis tau ntau dua li. Kuv xav tsis thoob los ntawm cov lus sib cav no li kaum xyoo dhau los; qhov tseeb hais tias lawv rov qab los zoo nkauj npaum li qub, nce tawm ntawm lawv cov hluav taws kom hu rau kev ua tsov rog tshiab los quell qhov kev tsim txom los ntawm cov laus ib txwm, thawb kuv mus rau theem tshiab ntawm kev poob siab heev. Ntshai springs nyob mus ib txhis thiab yeej ib txwm yuav summoned. Kev tsov rog devours nws cov lus qhia.
As Ivan Eland sau tsis ntev los no ntawm Huffington Post: "Ua tsov rog, cov neeg siab phem tshaj plaws muab cov riam phom thiab siv rau txhua tus neeg. Yog hais tias tsis muaj tseeb txog qhov teeb meem no, thaum ISIS nyuam qhuav txeeb Iraq, nws disarmed Iraqi zoo-txawm peem rau cov tub rog thiab xa nws ntawm lub mus dhia. Nyob rau hauv nws tam sim no cua phiaj los nqis tes tiv thaiv rog ntawm lub tam sim no renamed IS, American airpower yog ntaus nws tus kheej ua tsov rog. "
Nws hais ntxiv tias: "Yog li ntawd, ib tus neeg yuav xav hais tias cov neeg Amelikas cov thawj coj yuav dhau los txaj muag kom rov mus koom nrog Iraq. Tab sis lawv tam sim no xav hais tias lawv yuav tsum tau tua cov dab uas lawv tau tsim. Tab sis yog tias IS yog kev phem dua li nws txwv zeej txwv koob, al Qaeda hauv Iraq, dab tsi ntau formidable zeej yog lawv tam sim no tsim nyob rau hauv kev tawm tsam rau US kev sib tsoo? "
Peb tabtom cia lub qhov dej nyob hauv peb lub tebchaws tam sim no peb tsis nco qab tias "kev tsov rog ntawm kev ntshai," ua rau cov neeg ploj tuag coob tshaj pua pua txhiab (thiab ib txhia kwv yees tshaj li ib plhom), ua rau lub tebchaws tawg rog thiab ua kom tsis muaj pa kev ua tsov ua rog txoj kev tsis txawj ntawm co toxins. Nyob rau hauv txoj kev ua txhua yam no, peb tau ua ntau yam kev tsis sib haum xeeb, uas maj mam ua tub rog thiab los ua tam sim no Islamic lub xeev, uas yog viciously thiab ruthlessly noj lub teb chaws rov qab. Tam sim no, nrog peb ignorance txog Iraq tus socio-thoj complexity, peb pom tsis muaj lwm txoj tab sis mus dhia rov qab rau hauv kev sib tsoo bombing tiv thaiv nws, yog tias tsis muaj kev sib ntaus sib tua deb dua.
Thawj Tswj Hwm Obama thiab cov nom tswv Democrats pom li no, "humanitarian" kev cuam tshuam, thaum lub Republicans thiab cov neeg ua hauj lwm Dems tau clamoring rau ib txoj kev tua neeg loj, ib zaug ntxiv, los tiv thaiv "lub teb chaws", uas lawv xav kom tso tseg rau cov hom phiaj se.
Thiab cov ntsiab lus tseem ceeb nyob raws li ntiav raws li kev ua si tawm tswv yim. Kev ua tub rog, txawm tias tag nrho cov khau-khau, khau-rau-hauv-av, lossis txwv rau kev sib foob thiab cov cuaj luaj, yog cov lus teb, vim qhov kev ua tsov ua rog zoo li kev daws teeb meem. Dab tsi 's ploj lawm saum lwm tus yog plig-searching ntawm kev tsi.
Meanwhile, Iraq thiab nws cov neeg tseem raug kev tsim txom, xws li ncaj nraim ntawm peb txhais tes lossis ntawm tes ntawm cov dab tsis tau tsim peb. Raws li cov tswv lag luam yuav hais, lub hom phiaj ua tiav.
