      ISIS is horrible & the Syrian civil war should end. (It can—via a big power deal). A rational conversation on terrorism is hard—but we must.

      The idea I take ISIS lightly is nonsense. I'll fly three times this month through an airport attacked by ISIS. I've been worried for years.

      ISIS is terribly worrying. But disproportionately alarmist, irrational, ahistorical "diagnoses" of eternal, immutable conflicts won't help.

      I've been writing for years on taking the Iraq war aftermath seriously, and long-term gravity of Saudi-US sparking of "jihad" in the 80s.

      The world that reintegrated Germany & Japan after WWII within 10 years can solve this. We need longer-term thinking, not fueling more fires.

      We *know* how to end such conflicts, fueled by a range of similar structural conflicts and ideologies. Patience, vision, plan, sanity.

      I'd say money, too, but the sane path to stabilizing this range of issues is cheaper than the cost of the nutty options being loudly pushed.

      Profile is all similar. Decentralization is the greatest trick the devil ever invented. No "pure" security solution. https://twitter.com/evanchill/status/753953880233414656 …

      People pushing to solve this with escalation & within a "conflict of civilizations" framework are selling a deadly, worse than useless path.

      Should've never let the Syrian war fester, decommission Iraqi army without hiring back 95% to paint schools, fuel "jihad" in Afghanistan...

      But here we are. Most of what's on the "table" will make things worse. I see a realistic path forward, but have little hope it will happen.
