What's Changed 5 Years after Bin Laden's Death?

Years after Bin Laden's death many things have happen like the rise of ISIS/ISLE. ISIS became well known about 2 years ago with mass executions, beheadings, and enslavement. Another thing the US fears is that Al Qaeda might make a comeback, because they are affiliated with countries like Yemen and Syria and are worried that if they do make a comeback it'll be worse than what they have previously done. Another thing that has happend is President Obama is trying to close Guantanamo Bay. Obama says it's a key to Jihad recruitment.

Questions

  1. Do you think that Al Qaeda will make a comeback and why?
  2. Do you think that they'll close Guantanamo Bay and Why?

Hopefully Al Qaeda doesn't make a comeback because then they'll do something tragic again and in the future I think they'll eventually close Guantanamo due to people thinking it's a key to Jihad recruitment.

    • I agree on Al Queda not making a comeback and that they eventually lose Guantanamo Bay.

  • I think that since ISIS/ IS was a group that came out of Al Queda is getting stronger that Al Queda might weaken for a while. I'm not sure if they will close it now but i definitely think it could happen in the future.

    • I agree ISIS came out of Al Queda  and that that they possible could close Guantanamo Bay in the future.

  • I hope that Al Qaeda does not make a comeback. ISIS has already done a great damage to the world and I hope that Al Qaeda doesn't add to it. They could be a very large threat if they do come back at us. I think that eventually Guantanamo Bay will close, but I am not sure when.

    • I agree ISIS has done too much to harm the world and another terrorist group doesn't need to add to that. And I also think that Guantanamo Bay will close.

  • I definitely think that ISIS may cause a comeback of Al Qaeda. I think that the rise of ISIS might cause Al Qaeda to want to be a stronger power than ISIS, and this could be a serious problem. I definitely think that all terrorists groups are a threat and should be monitored carefully. 

    I don't think they will close Guantanamo Bay because Obama has been trying to get it closed during all of his presidency, and that hasn't happened. I think that, although morally wrong, Guantanamo gets the United States the answers that it needs about terrorists. 

  • I think that they probably will, because we are occupied with ISIS and other terrorist groups. Obviously that would be bad so I hope that they don't. I think that we should do everything we can, and in this case we should close guantanamo bay if we are sure that it is a recruitment place. 

    • The might make a comeback while were occupied with ISIS but if we just keep an eye on them and keep taking out there leaders we'll be fine. I also think that they should close Guantanamo Bay if it help recruiting for terrorist groups.
