The fact of the matter is that the USA has no choice but to act now. If the violence spreads further into Turkey's borders, their (and our) NATO commitments will force them in. If the violence somehow gets entangled with what is going on in Egypt, you're looking at a total disaster. If ISIS were ever able to get a foothold in Egypt and ally with already existing militant groups, you'd see their ranks swell from 10s of thousands to millions. The USA also has an obligation to the Iraqi people to help them, as they, with their last war, are significantly (not entirely) responsible for the present situation in Iraq.
I believe you're fear mongering. As far as I know Isis hasn't made any attempt to move into Turkey or Egypt. Yeah they talk big but that's just to suck us in.
