Shaggy Offers Solution to Defeating ISIS Without Violence

The fight against ISIS or ISIL in the Middle East has been a back and forth battle between forces on the ground comprised of Kurdish infantry forces from Turkey and Iraq, various Syrian rebels, Syrian government forces, ill-equipped and poorly trained Iraqi government forces and a coalition Western and Gulf countries providing intelligence and air support. Governments have struggled to find the right solution in grappling with this vicious and growing menace that has conquered a large swath of land in Syria and Iraq and declared a Caliphate, instituting a brutal form of Sharia law and killing those who oppose them. However, one man appears to have the solution that everyone across the solution has been looking for - "It Wasn't Me" artist, Shaggy.

In a recent interview with the Miami New Times on a press run to promote some of his new music, including the 2014 single "Go F•ck Yourself," Shaggy was asked who he thought should go "eff themselves" and he smartly responded with ISIS.

"ISIS can go f*ck themselves. That's some crazy sh*t what they're doing. It's horrible, man. I can't see... I don't get that much hate. I just don't get that level of evil. I can't understand it."

To combat that evil, he offers up two solutions that should end this problem once and for all -- reggae and weed.

"There're two thing you want to do when you listen to reggae: You get somebody pregnant, or you're f*cking high. High people don't want to kill nothing; they want to love. They need to bag some Jamaican weed and distribute it amongst ISIS. I guarantee there won't be any more wars out there."

Is this really the perfect way to end world conflict? Do you think the governments of the world would get on board?
