Hillary Clinton Just Outlined A Plan to Defeat ISIS and Global Terror. 3 Things You Need to Know:

Statement

Date: Nov. 19, 2015
Issues: Defense

We can defeat global terrorism.

1. We need to crush ISIS on its home turf.

We can't just contain ISIS--we need to defeat it. That means going after the group in Syria, Iraq, and across the Middle East. And it means ramping up airstrikes and making sure local and regional ground troops have what they need to go after ISIS and create safe spaces.

2. We need to disrupt and dismantle terrorist infrastructure--on the ground and online.

Old school tactics aren't going to cut it when it comes to defeating a terrorist group that has mastered the art of online propaganda. ISIS and global jihadists are recruiting, training, and inciting violence on social media--breeding a growing network of terrorists around the world. The U.S. needs to work with our partners around the world to be just as savvy.

3. We have to protect America and our allies.

We need better coordination and information-sharing all around to break up terror plots and prevent attacks--between European governments and law enforcement, between Silicon Valley and Washington, and between local police officers and the communities they serve.
