Dealing With ISIS
A Scary Option
A Bar at the Airport
February 2015
We are sitting at a bar, in the airport. He is waiting to go home. I am waiting to start my vacation. We get on the topic of ISIS. He speaks with the tone of a wise man, one who has all the answers, “I tell you, I know exactly what to do. You want to know what to do about this? You remember what we did to Hitler? Bomb them. Bomb every last one of them. Just like Hitler.”
But I tell him, this enemy is different. “With Hitler, we knew where to find him and
all of his soldiers wore the same uniform.
These guys are everywhere. We can't identify them”.
“I know, can you fucking believe it. They’re in London and Paris. They are bombing Paris now. Shit, they’re everywhere”. We gotta stop them, NOW!” His voice has a little desperation as he
speaks.
“So where do you drop bombs, everywhere?” I ask a little
smugly.
“Yea, everywhere.
East of the Mississippi. Every
fuckingwhere”.
