    How are we going to capture them without boots on the ground? Maybe we could use nets suspended from fighter planes since drones don't have enough lifting capability.

    I cannot...you did not allow for other.....

    If American citizens, trial for treason and if found guilty.....firing squad.

    If non citizen....firing squad followed by a trial.

    Interrogate, investigate, and (if found guilty of acts of war and/or murder), imprison.

    Isn't there something in the rules about trolling polls, misusing the polls, silly polls etc.? Poll, as I understand it, are supposed to offer a meaningful choice, yes?

    Too bad this was not a choice on the poll. I should like to add that all the above actions take place by the military with no civilian involvement as it is war and they are combatants, not criminals.

    DrewBedson,

    It was indeed a very poor poll, and the choices were incredibly-limited.

    Yes, but moderators are not everywhere all of the time and so unless someone reports the violation they just might miss it for quite some time.

    Turn them over to the government in the country where they are fighting. If that country chooses to cut their hands and feet off and release them, so be it.

    I really believe that we must use a scorched earth and take no prisoners policy to eliminate this group of barbaric religious fanatics.

    Turn them over to the Kurdish authorities is the correct answer.

    I think the guillotine would be a nice option. It is certainly more humane and surer.

    Agreed. Any surviving Islamic State terrorists should be shot with bullets coated with pig's blood or instead wrapped in pig's skin and have beer poured upon them, prior to their beheading by a naked female porn star!

    My instinctive answer makes a direct reference to the Siege of Malta.

    When the Ottomans sent to the defenders the beheaded bodies of Christian Knights, the Knights of Malta withing the walls of "The Religion" [this is how the Knights called their fortified city] beheaded the Ottoman prisoners using their heads as shells for cannons.

    So, following this example, I would be tempted to answer:

    "behead them and use their heads as bombs to drop for airplanes!".

    But then I remember that we live in 21st century and that we have to be politically correct, so that I would suggest to make them face a quick trial in front of a military court and then execute them.

    I think a little 7th century medicine would be appropriate.

    Drown them in pigs blood and entrails then feed them to wild pigs effectively turning them into pig poop.
    Bet it wouldn't take more than a couple of youtube videos before they started running back to momma.

    should we be capturing them? that only happens with boots on the ground, we will be bombing them, no capturing there

    but for games lets say we have boots on the ground and they turn themselves in, then we have to treat them like POWs of course

    Ya, I cant understand why so many people want to embrace the VERY SAME IDEOLOGY of the same people they hate? IT makes no sense. Maybe its a form of insanity.

    Some of the worst poll options I have ever seen.

    I'm not sure we are going to be doing any of that. I guess if it depends on if the Islamic State is really a state or not. If we accept that, then we would treat that like POW's, but if we're just thinking of them as terrorists, then we could send them to Gitmo... aww who am I kidding? Obama isn't serious about this. Just let them go.

    My vote is to not capture anybody. Leave 'em where they fall.

    You gotta ask yourself as a pilot - what would they if they captured me?

    Silly poll, silly answer:
    1-Choice of castration and then beheading by one of their own women, or:
    2- Gladitorial games until there's only one left, and then revert to option one.
    Enjoy!
