Gilmore on ISIS

"Former Gov. Jim Gilmore (R-Va.), a GOP presidential candidate, said Congress does not need to
declare war on ISIS because they are not a state.
I do believe in declarations of war but I am not willing to say that ISIS is a state, and usually declarations of war are against a state. You don’t declare war against an international guerrilla movement,” he said.
We should not give them the credit of being a state. They’re an intentional gang of terrorists terrorizing people through force of arms, creating acts of barbarity, burning people up in cages, enslaving women, cutting people’s heads off, this is not a civilized nation within the modern day.”
Gilmore called the expansion of ISIS an “ongoing battle” the U.S. should fight with its best assets to protect the American people." PJM
