Issue Position: Homeland Security and Terrorism

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016

We as a country must maintain a strong position worldwide.I believe the current strategy in force of a continual offensive bombing is productive. The May 2, 2016 publication of Barron's reported that the coalition currently in force to defeat ISIS has retaken 6 major cities in Syria and Iraq and by late "2017... the Islamic State will reduced to some roving guerrilla bands riding around Syria". We must be careful not to kill innocent people who are caught in the middle of this situation. Many terrorist criminals which misuse the wording of the Q'uron to justify their actions must be dealt with as criminals. The Muslum followers of Islam are not the problem. If we must intensify our efforts and go into a country to correct abuses we must assure we stabilize the situation so that vacuums are not left for terrorists to strengthen such as happened in Iraq(which later spread to Syria). ISIS is the terrible consequence which has resulted from this misguided strategy. The members of these terrorist groups are taught that America is trying to impose western values on their countries. This is not true as in most cases the USA has good intentions. We must increase military spending which will be possible from my below detailed Job and Economic Act.
