France and the US has absolutely NOT started a SIGNIFICANT BOMBING CAMPAIGN.
Knocking down a few shacks, taking out a "training camp" , taking out the car with Jihadi John in it is not a lot.
Look at the photo the Pentagon released of the Jihadi John strike this week. You can clearly see they struck the car. You can see the ISIS Headquarters building in Raqqa and the Sharia Law court building, both huge buildings standing UNTOUCHED.
Do they have power plants? Yes
Do they have cell towers? Yes
Do they have major roads? Yes
Do they have bridges? Yes
Do they have government buildings? Yes
Do they have banks? Yes
Do they have oil fields? Yes
ISIS has stated that one of their goals is to have a real government that functions at a local level with engagement from the local citizenry. This is what the US, France, Russia and allies should destroy - every semblance of a functioning country within Mosal and Raqqa. Everything that allows them to say to their citizens "we are a real government".
Look at the VICE video. They went into Syria last year and were given press tour by ISIS. They are the ONLY news organization to have gone inside ISIS and been given full access. The video is incredible. It shows this is not some have-@ss attempt at a country. ISIS is operating a fully functional government. It's citizens are supporting ISIS with taxes, loyalty, bodies for war and governmental cooperation.
You need to ask yourself .... are the citizens of Raqqa and Mosal to be treated any different than the citizens of Germany or Japan during World War II?
