The problem in most troubled areas are the citizens. Business people and politicians (corrupt or not) can only do what the people of that region allow them to do in life.
When considering fighting ISIS we have to take in to account the citizens of an area as a resource in the solution. The true solution is not America taking the lead or even the sole responsibility for the safety and security of the world. The necessary solution is composed of citizens being awake and involved in the status of their region.
It is true that when members of a society practice the “Everything sucks. Nothing works. Why bother?” attitude society at large suffers the consequence. For decades many individuals around the world have been traumatized by what they believe is a hopeless reality. This belief leads to turning their back on society by not voting, not being informed, and not making positive contributions to their society.
It is very easy to say that those trying to solve the problem are the ones causing the problem. Through then end results of corrupt relationships between politicians, business people, and special interest groups people loose confidence in authority figures, stop working for themselves, and contribute to the decay of societal stability.
Therefore, in order to deal with groups such ISIS and people such as Putin and Castro we are going to have to help people of troubled regions stand up for themselves and police their own. If the US sends in a lot of troops to kill all extremist, all the US will accomplish is leaving a vacuum that will easily be filled by even more dangerous extremist. When we engage the every day people of this region and help them defend themselves we build societal structures that will prevent extremist from dominating an area and threatening everyone’s safety and security.
The violent extremist challenge is going to be one of centuries. Today, we have to use our smart brains to employ outreach strategies which will result in the people of areas such as Iran, Iraq, and Afghanistan to protect and defend their regions.
I would like to know why 13 years of Americans training members of the Afghanistan military has not lead to an Afghanistan military capable of defending Afghanistan. I will suggest that maybe it has to do with the reality that we were training the wrong people.
The Obama presidency has been a serious threat to Freedom. Liberty, and Independence. Once Obama convinced Americans not to have hope many Americans gave up on themselves and their country. If Obama had been allowed to continue, it would of been easy for him to rob every American of their Freedom, Liberty, and Independence by making them to weak to defend themselves.
This is why we have to promote self reliance and personal responsibility to our brothers and sisters around the world as a tools for safety and security. First, we level the playing field by utilizing an equal partnership among the free nations of the free world to stop all evil. Then, we help members of communities learn to believe in them selves and their homeland again.
My ideas are not “lalalala” “everything is awesome” fantasy positive “ideation”. I know that the best people to defend a region are the people of that region.
