How effective would the deployment of carnivorous dinosaurs be against ISIS?
Why not just clone a thousand T-Rexes and a million Velociraptors and release them into the middle east?
That should take care of the terrorists.
Or would the climate make the poor dinos uncomfortable?

Are T-Rexes and Velociraptors discerning about which humans they eat? Introducing new species can be a bit of an environmental nightmare. Look at the cane toad in Australia. We could be overrun with these critters.
I think that’s a shi’ite idea.
Not good as they would eat all, good and bad.
I think freedumb-loving vampires, Xian-crusading zombies, and Wall Street werewolves would be more effective.
Since the dinosaurs will be cloned, why not genetically modify them to be far more intelligent that humans and heavily arm them with powerful weapons, body armor and smart phones. There will be no collateral damage as these man-designed super-dinos seek out and destroy the Islamic terrorist in there nests. The terrorists will quickly lay down and surrender as it will quickly become obvious that they are no match.
When the war is over the dinos will maintain an indefinite presence in specific areas around the world. They will always be ready to stop terrorism anytime at a moments notice. But the consequences of engaging in terrorism would be so great that no one would even consider it. So some of the dionos could go on to teach in the universities and or run for political offices.
^ I think we might already have some of those dinosaurs in the Australian parliament. I suspect they’re the ones that had defects and weren’t suitable for anti-terrorist activities or much else really.
Life from the prehistoric era thrived in a gravity that was much different than the ones humans live in. Big lizards and insects from back then, apparently, could not live with our current gravity. They would be immobilized and crushed to the ground. The cloning would have to alter them to fit our gravity.
@Symbeline
Gravity 65 million years ago was the same as today.
The atmosphere’s oxygen content was higher, though.
It was? Hm…I read that years ago, or was told. Must have fucked up haha. Maybe it was the oxygen thing then. (if it’s an issue, the alter that in clone creation)
But now I’m wondering. Would dinosaurs have been interested in human meat? Regardless, they’d probably still kill us.
@Symbeline I have heard that human flesh doesn’t taste good because of all the crap we eat. If carnivore meat was good, we’d eat more of that.
What if there had been cavemen living at the same time as dinosaurs? They ate natural stuff only, plants, roots, nuts, and eventually, meat. Did we taste better back then?
That oxygen content thing is a big deal.. It WAS a major reason that dinosaurs could develop to those colossal sizes, and dragonflies could have 2 foot wingspans.
Brilliant idea! Flesh eating dinosaurs would be appropriate symbols for America’s primitive foreign policies.
The other problem with bringing dinosaurs back is their flatulence. We already know the flatulence (methane) produced by cattle is affecting climate change, how bad would adding dino farts to the mix be? Plus I’ve seen IRobot and Jurassic Park. I don’t fancy velocoriraptors banding together against humans.
