US says they just killed ‘Jihadi John’ in Raqqa air strike, but so what?

The U.S. is saying that they are 99% sure that Jihadi John is dead after they tracked him for days and then nailed him with an air strike in Raqqa:

Here is David Cameron, the British Prime Minister on this, saying they are still working to confirm his death:

I think it’s great that we got Jihadi John, but my joy is severely tempered by the fact that we aren’t really fighting ISIS and never have been. So what if Jihadi John is dead? There are thousands and thousands more ISIS jihadis doing the same thing every day and we aren’t doing anything to destroy them – just these pinprick bombings that really amount to nothing.

Until we take the threat of ISIS seriously, these little propaganda bombings mean virtually nothing.
