Agreed: there are bad people living in foreign nations that want to do us harm.

Agreed: We would be better off (and the world would be better off) if those people were gone.

Question: what exactly is the course of action we should take that we haven't been taking for the last 15 years?

Question: who/what is preventing us from taking it?

Optional Question: how effective has the U.S. been in defeating/deterring ISIS?

I'm operating from the premise that both presidencies have agreed with the first two points above, and have acted accordingly.  So I'm just asking if there's some obvious (or not so obvious) step we should be taking.
