This does not seem like real foreign policy, are we going to go over there and try to kick them out? Perhaps it would be best to keep quiet but airing the stance may not be too bad.  I say we will see conflict continue there, even if it is not with ISIS or perhaps, not even with other terrorists like Al Qaeda.

At least the root of the problems might have been identified.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
