The current* islamic regime is rinsed. The next Islamic regime won't be. The problem is we are not in the economic condition, let alone the willpower, to waste another 20 years or trillion(s) of dollars on nation building. Even playing whack-a-mole with airstrikes is going to grate on with the American people. And that means someone else plays the ground game of deciding what goes on next. At best there's some general warlord who wants to take over and will play nice with the US to do so but I don't like the idea of breaking the country and then figuring out what to do next.

>How big is the population of the country you want to invade
>What are the ethnic/religious cleavage points of the country you want to invade
This nigger is pushing for regime change war and doesn't know fuck-about-shit about the country in question. And it's not just him, all the chicken-shit-hawks don't fucking know a god damn thing about the target except GOTTA BOMB EM.
