&gt; It&#x27;s dishonest to compare openly fighting ISIS with blowing up and shooting civilians as a primary mean.<p>That&#x27;s all well and good to say when you know enlisting in the US military in conventional warfare against ISIS has a good chance of succeeding.<p>But what if the US was the small poor state and ISIS was the world&#x27;s largest economy whose military targets were too well-defended to attack?<p>I&#x27;m sure you&#x27;d find lots of recruits in Texas for &quot;guerilla special units behind enemy lines&quot;. Especially if cruise missiles and drone strikes were hitting US soil every other day.
