  Captain Haddock, whoever (s)he may be:
  
  The defeat of ISIS - Islamic State of Iraq and Syria - means wiping it from the map. That of course is the aim of the Iraqi and Syrian governments (among many others), who understandably want their territory back. Hopefully in the process as many of their leadership as possible will be taken out of the equation. I think it is simpler than you suppose.
  
  Destroying it as a so-called state is a very achievable aim.
  
  Of course, that will not mean the end of the threat from Islamic fundamentalism, in its many forms. There is no ultimate solution to that. As long as Islam and western civilisation both exist there will be adherents of the former seeking to damage the latter.
