The only way to destroy ISIS is to bomb assad

I believe Turkish president Erdogan was right when he said that we shouldn't be bombing ISIS unless we also bomb Assad. Assad supports ISIS and has done everything he can to help them fight the moderate opposition.

ISIS exist mainly to oppose Assad. The only reason people support them is because they believe ISIS is the lesser of two evils. If Assad stops his atrocities and is deposed then ISIS will lose local support and collapse.

How will that get rid of them? I think you misunderstand the importance of Assad. He's little more than a puppet for the Russians. Getting rid of him will do nothing to get rid of those ISIS savages. Besides, ISIS are anti-government.

No, we should be supporting Assad and giving him weapons. We need to support all dictators in the Middle East so they can impose a system of control with no mercy. These people need to be controlled. Without a guard dog they run wild, they don't possess the capability to be civilised. We need monsters with authority to lead the Middle eastern nations.

Whatever his crimes, right now Assad is the only thing keeping ISIS from steamrolling all of Syria and moving into Lebanon and Jordan. After the battering they've taken in the last four years, there's absolutely no way that any of the opposition groups are strong enough by themselves to take control of the country and form an effective bulwark against ISIS.

This is a joke right? It's ridiculous. You want to give ISIS what they want. How utterly wimpy. Have you no shame? Erdogan is a hardcore Islamist anyway who behaves like a gangster, outrageously rigging his own election and supporting ISIS while bombing and murdering Kurdish forces who are the main ones taking the ground fight to ISIS.

Does this apply to Tunisia?
And who will replace Assad?

Just like in Libya. The governments of the UK and the US wantrd to get rid of Gaddafi, and they did. What replaced him was no better. Libya is now a failed state.

Fools like you make these mistakes again and again.
This is true.
Step 1) Get rid of ISIS
Step 2) Get rid of Assad

Tunisia Oppose terror groups and rightly so but ISIS are walking all over the country, they don't have a merciless government to withstand them so yes Tunisua too. I refer to the countries in the region where extremism is rife

So democracy in Belgium should toppled and replaced by a dictatorship?
leaving a power vacuum in a country where a fascist, barbaric organisation is itching for more land/power???
look to afghanistan and iraq to see what happens when you do that.
