ISIS: Don't surrender to fear

I am writing you because I am concerned about my future and country. I disagree because the only reason they are here is because they had no army or defense in their country to keep the Daesh away from the country.

I think we should send in the big boys on the block that are the U.S., Russia, China. The only way we can do that is we need to put the boots on the ground and cut the 50 percent amount of air strikes and put in the men we trained. If you don’t agree than ask yourself this: Why did we train Army, Marines, Navy troops on the ground?

A call to arms may become the only way, but helping those that need the help should always be first, it is the American way.

Fear is just that, a word. Humanity is who we are, and our actions will dictate how little fear affects us as a nation.

Word Up. Daesh wants fear and we don’t give terrorists what they want because we are better than them. Don’t be afraid because they get close to our border or Mexico and Canada borders. They won’t get in no matter what because we are the big dog out of Russia, China and U.S. So don’t worry. Focus on the future and have fun and enjoy life.
