the only thing these nutjobs accomplished was the Fame. They are the same as newtown child shooter adam lanza - mad people with a grudge, & they chose their target to evoke revulsion from the public. mission accomplished.
the idealogy of terror that fed their rage is an ongoing phenom. its hard to say how there is ever final victory over the idealogy, other than the middle east needs an age of enlightenment & prosperity that makes jihadism obsolete like the KKK. The US gave it their best shot recent in afghanistan, but theres limits to what a country half a world away can do.
The local people themselves must evolve away from tribalism & sectarianism. good luck with that. maybe the US should drop iphones on syria along with bombs.
