From the 'muzzie' perspective: Over 10,000 (some say 40,000) ISIS maniac soldiers have been liquidated. As direct collateral damage of US led and Russian lead military operations -- 3,000 to 5,000 reported civilian deaths have occurred. So the return damage is maybe 1 for 10? 1 for 50 overall.

You didn't think there would be a sickening retribution?
Many of these countries really only have a couple things to offer, oil and natural gas as well as cheap labor. If we can get away from buying their oil and gas that will go a long way towards helping us. The cheap labor fuels them but that will change with time as robots and automation make cheap labor obsolete.

I find myself wondering how they will act once they have even less to offer the world.
