Isis: War party's MacGuffin to prolong perpetual war

Movie buffs, especially fans of thriller director Alfred Hitchcock, know what a MacGuffin is: a plot device in the form of some goal, desired object, or other motivator that the protagonist pursues, often with little or no narrative explanation. For Hitchcock it might be the plans for the airplane engine (39 Steps) or the uranium ore stored in vintage wine bottles (Notorious). Everyone knows the most famous MacGuffin in filmdom, the black bird in John Huston's Maltese Falcoln. But neither Huston nor Hitchcock have come up with a better MacGuffin for America's endless real life drama of perpetual war, than the US war party's ISIS, also know as Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. This rag tag assortment of Sunni Islamic extremists, which had some success in acquiring land in those countries from their arch rival Shi'ite Muslim brethren, are prime motivator which allows the war party to wage perpetual war all over the Middle East and Africa. Every president, congressman, military guru, media talking head says we can't bring out our token forces in numerous countries and stop dropping tens of thousands of bombs annually because ISIS will grow and threaten our homeland. That is utter nonsense fed to a public that isn't listening and doesn't care...so perpetual war drones on. And up in Celluloid Heaven Hitchcock might say: "Good evening ladies and gentlemen. I'll created 57 MacGuffins for my 57 films, but none compares to the Mother of All MacGuffins....ISIS."
