Because if you let ISIS go, then the region just festers with terrorists having free reign to do whatever, and so they coordinate and plan the next 9/11.

The world is too interconnected now to just write off one region, let it completely go to shit and say "it's okay, it doesn't effect us at home." It will, it will just take time to come home to roost.

Now, this doesn't mean you can just go in, guns a blazing, kill stuff and think that will solve the problem either, but action is needed. Thoughtful action.

However, 9/11 only happened because of American intervention in the first place. If there was no intervention the U.S would not be a target, or at least not as big of a target as it is now. Preventative warfare is only necessary for states that get into everybody's business in the first place.
