Aow #3: Who is Isis?

American Journalist is being beheaded by militants in Syria known as Isis. The Isis militants made videos of masked Isis militant killing journalist, James Foley, This American Journalist was kidnapped two years ago. How in the world could someone doing something this sick minded? The United States forces tried to rescue Foley and other journalist that are held hostage but Isis militants demanded and wanted $130 million for them to let him go. Isis members have threatened to kill other journalist if the United States do not change their ways in Iraq. In 2006, The United States troop surge in Iraq hampered the group’s ability to carry out terrorist actions. We should of done something different to solve conflict and then maybe we would not be in the situation we are today with Isis. The Al Qaeda broke ties with Isis back in February, but due to the Syrian civil war and the weak government in Iraq, the Isis group is expanding clear to the long border between Iraq and Syria. Why don't the government do something before they take over their country? This just seems crazy to me, now no one even knows how many fighters Isis has, some seem to think around 15,000 and maybe even three times more than that to fight if needed. How do they not know hoe many? It honestly sounds like to me they aren't taking this serious enough.. If it was my country i'd be wanting to keep close eye on how many there was for my own safety. This really angers me not even the United States is taking this seriously, CIA deputy director Mike Morell thinks that the beheading videos and such is just a way to intimidate the United States. How could you blow this off like that, they could still have a plan to attack us, we need to find a way to make peace with them for the safety of our people. He also says that we should mark that date down because its the first terriost attack against the United States. Sure, mark that date down but whats that going to do to solve anything? Someone or some people put the Isis flag unfurled outside of the White House. That to me is scary, if someone got that close to the White House to put an Isis flag then that should be a warning sign there. Why didn't they investigate or do anything about that? They should be concerned of their safety!
