    Jordan has killed approximately 7,000 ISIS members since they joined the fight

    https://www.timesofisrael.com/jordan-...ed-in-strikes/

    The Hashemite Kingdom has launched airstrikes against Islamic State group weapons depots, training centers and military barracks since militants released a video of them burning a Jordanian pilot to death.

    Jordanian officials have said they would retaliate harshly for the slaying of the pilot, Lt. Muaz Kasasbeh, who was set ablaze while trapped in a cage.

    Since Thursday, the Jordanian air force has attacked and destroyed 56 Islamic State targets, the air force chief, General Mansour al-Jabour, told reporters. This includes 19 targets on the first day, 18 on the second and 19 on the third, he said.

    “We achieved what we were looking for: revenge for Muaz,” the general said. “And this is not the end. This is the beginning.”

    In recent days, Jordanian officials have delivered tough warnings to Islamic State, saying the retaliation campaign would not stop until the group has been destroyed.

    The United States and several Arab allies, including Jordan, have been striking the Islamic State group in Syria since September 23, while warplanes from the US and other countries have been waging an air campaign against the extremists in Iraq for even longer. The campaign aims to push back the jihadist organization after it took large parts of Iraq and Syria and declared a “caliphate.”

    Al-Jabour said coalition planes have flown 5,500 sorties since the beginning of the air campaign, including 2,000 reconnaissance flights. He did not say whether this included flights over both Syria and Iraq. He said Jordan’s air force participated in 946 sorties.

    Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates have been participating in the Syria airstrikes, with logistical support from Qatar.

    US officials have said that the UAE suspended airstrikes after the capture of the Jordanian pilot. The UAE announced Saturday it was sending a squadron of F-16 fighters to Jordan.

    The Emiratis did not say what role the planes would play. A Jordanian official said they would participate in airstrikes.

    7000 / 5 = 1400.

    ISIS recruited 5000+ in 5 months. 1000 per month.

    Pentagon reports 6000 killed in 5 months. 1000 gained. This is an estimate based off of FOREIGN joined solders, not just locals joining up. It's obvious they will, especially in ISIS controlled territory. I'd rather be with them, than be controlled and killed off by them.

    We're slowing them, not stopping them. The only way to get shit done is "boots on the fucking ground". What, you think we killed Bin Laden off airstrikes? Flipped Al Qaeda upside the fuck down with airstrikes? Nah.

    Honestly, you really think airstrikes are going to just send ISIS away, like a breath in the air? No, using airstrikes against ISIS is gonna be like a breath in a windstorm.

    I know, it's dangerous for the people in service. There's nobody I respect more than them. They deserve an un-measurable amount of respect for the danger they go out to face and defeat. But it's just necessary to do at this point. We're just wasting time, and money, while ISIS makes 1 million+ per day.

    Good and bad. Some ISIS members just have bad influence, especially the ones that come from Australia. They just think wrongly. They have a chance at things and instead pursued in the ISIS direction in belief of religious reasons.

    I guess Jordan did good...
