Where are all the captured ISIS fighters?

Anyone else wonder what they are doing with all the captured fighters who surrendered when over powered?
We have no room at the GITMO hotel and with little or no "American Boots" on the ground these fighters would not be our prisoners. I highly doubt the Muslim countries and opposition soldiers follow any form of a Geneva Convention so is it safe to assume ISIS fighters are provided a one way ticket to go meet 72 virgins who are out of this world?

    The way to make those who are thinking about becoming radicalized and joining ISIS might be to show what happens to these warriors when they do get captured. BHO would certainly say "That is just not who we are" but he just might be very wrong about that. We have plenty of pigs blood here so if they really do believe in such voodoo then I say use it wisely. They have to be running short on virgins any way.

    The Syrian Christian militia made a video, with the ISIS prisoners clad in black, being beheaded by Christians garbed in orange prison jumpsuits. It was kind of a revenge propaganda, and presents what is probably happening to any ISIS captured.

    Not that they will actually go to paradise when they die. Where exactly IS paradise? I say when you die, its like unplugging a computer- everything stops and you disappear.

    I hope they are treated to beheadings or something else quick and final.

    Your Pershing story is a little mixed up. The incident actually happened in the Philippines, pre-WW I, and the enemy were the Huks, an Islamic terrorist group (still operating, BTW). Nonetheless, a good example.

    Shaking my head over the diametric opposition that has never rectified itself with the advent of conscious awareness over the past 5000 years.
    It's a complicated issue with many causes and effects but I still wonder exactly how much of this is pure, or impure, genetics.

    Does anyone really care what happens to them. Not taking prisoners is a good thing. No pics = no problems. Should cover battle zones with pigs blood from tankers. Would doom them all.

    Agree: Obama has simply wanted the Iraqis to handle the whole ground operation themselves. Of course, that will probably mean that those captured will eventually escape and re-join ISIS!

    Perhaps they follow the example of the US' muslim president, and exchange 20 fighters for one traitor, and provide them fake passports and air tickets to San Francisco.

    I imagine they are standing in the line of Syrian refugees, waiting their turn to relocate to the U.S.

    Given the sympathies of our current Administration as Mulsim apologists and the lack of ground-based soldiers, I don't think the US is directly involved in activities that would lead to many captures, but I could be mistaken.

    like General Pershing in WW1, in his first battle in northern Africa with muslim military fighting with the Axis powers, he captured a few dozen fighters...he formed them up and had two prisoners watch as he brought pigs forward...he killed the pigs and saved their blood...he executed the remaining muslim prisoners and then smeared them with pig's blood...the two prisoners her released...they went back to their lines and told their fellow muslim fighters, who then dropped their weapons and fled...

    i trained muslim military pilots here in the u.s. while i was an instructor pilot in the Air Force...they commented they would do the same thing...pigs blood prevents them from going to paradise, having sex with 14 yr old virgins, and being served by us infidels for all eternity...

    fight smarter not harder....

    We don't have boots on the ground...other than "advisers" so any captured ISIS fighters would be in the custody of Iraqi troops or Peshmerga or Syrian resistance fighters......SOOOOOO I really don't think they will get the nice orange suits and culturally sensitive meals like at Git-mo. I am thinking they will all be getting just one step less than being impaled on a pole like Vlad the impaler or Shaka the king of the Zulus used to do.

    It just seems very odd. We see videos all the time of what happens when ISIS captures an enemy but I have never yet seen or heard what happens to captured ISIS fighters. This is the land of "An eye for an eye" mentality.

    Saves a lot of long drawn out controversy. no one seems to complain too much if the other side commits atrocities so maybe it's just business as usual and to offer a mid nineties quote it's 'nobodies business' but their own.

    Secondly was it Virgins or Virginians?
