Marco Rubio said there is one high-powered weapon the U.S. has to use against ISIS: YouTube.
According to CNN, on Monday Rubio said the U.S. needs to fight ISIS in Syria and Iraq but they also need to upload videos of the America’s exploits to the internet in order to offset ISIS’ propaganda and recruiting tactics.Rubio said:
I want the world to see how these ISIS leaders cry like babies when they’re captured, I want the world to see how these ISIS leaders, once captured, begin to sing like canaries if they survive.
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
He is also adamant only a local Sunni Muslim-Arab force can lead the charge against ISIS but said the U.S. would have to embed special forces alongside them in order to help them with tactical knowledge and skills.
Rubio continued to say:
We should be carrying out attacks against (ISIS) leadership nodes, videotaping the whole thing, and putting it up on YouTube so the world can see these people are not invincible. I want these young fighters around the world that are thinking of joining ISIS because they’re unstoppable to have seconds thoughts about it once they see how easily humiliated they are by American power.
ISIS is known to use social media to lure new recruits, to deliver video messages and to show their torture killing.
