Shortly after the U.S. air attacks on the Islamic State the Catholic pontiff, Pope Francis, was asked if he supported the bombing campaign. His reply noted in an Aug.22 Washington Post article focused on "halting UNJUST AGGRESSION" and clarified that he did not mean bomb or make war. To his great credit the Pope also stated the need for international cooperation and cited the creation of the United Nations after World War II in solving such disputes.

It is important to note the "unjust aggression" happened in Syria and Iraq NOT inside the United States. So while the United States demonstrated leadership and provided aide to the stranded Yazidi people the extended bombing campaign against the Islamic State exhibits destructive hubris.

Yes the potential for FUTURE terrorism remains high and the brutality of the Islamic State has been well documented. Couple that with the propaganda released by the Islamic State and evidence shows the international aspiration of the group. Consequently the UNITED NATIONS must be the body to solve this INTERNATIONAL threat. The Islamic State or ISIS, as they are often called, are not hiding in the caves of Afghanistan. More importantly this group is not hiding at all. So just send U.N. peace keepers into Syria and solve that trouble spot. After that, build troop strenght and advance on the Islamic State.

President Obama needs to show the tyrants of the Middle East and Vladimir Putin in Russia that the United States has the grace and strength to step aside for the greater good of world.

UNILATERAL ACTION BY THE UNITED STATES MUST STOP !!
