So France was just attacked and they're NOT going to start a full-scale invasion of the Islamic State? Unlike in 9/11 the enemy is very clear, has borders, and finances themselves with the oil from the territory they amassed.
France are just going to keep with its half-assed attempt to help stop I.S., that we all know won't work?
Even if it's what the Islamists want them to do, the appropriate response should be gathering Russia, France, Iran, maybe Turkey, and U.S. to steamroll over the territories controlled by the Islamists.
Occupied Iraq was better than this mess.

Nigger, all the west including France wants to do, is get rid of Assad, and then Iran. France like the USA and Saudi will continue arming, funding and operating with ISIS.
France has a good army, but not huge.
They can't just go gorilla and fuck up the whole region.
Even the US got bogged down in that shit and they have way more military resources.

I don't think France would bother itself too greatly with attempts at "state-building."
That's where the US fucked up - the ground war was essentially over after 14 days.
If France wanted to go into IS territory with a professional corps, fuck shit up, and get out again - they're well capable of doing it.

It's an argument indeed.

Except they don't really have borders. There's not an IS nation, in which you only find IS followers. They're still largely a guerilla outfit, operating from within an occupied civilian territory. And unlike say, North Vietnam, the civilian population is largely opposed to IS, and is entirely controlled by violence and fear.
Western armies don't like to send ground troops into occupied urban areas without first bombing the shit out of them. Yes, it would be possible to carpet bomb Raqqa, but whoever did so would become an international pariah.
