Let them go

I think that we should let people who want to leave this country and go to Syria to join ISIS go and do it.

We can then invalidate their passports so they can’t come back to the United States as suicide bombers. That is what is next for this country if you really think about it.

I suspect the worst is yet to come, all because of the misguided invasion of Iraq that dislodged a dictator and unleashed a centuries-old Shia and Sunni religious rivalry.
