The ISIS situation needs escalating.
By that I mean they need to be annihilated.
450 troops is nowhere near enough.
The allies need to go Dresden on these subhumans IMO.
They want martyrdom?
Lets give it to them en masse.
Sounds horrible I know-but its the only way to fight such evil IMO.
Nothing else will work at this point-or should we hope they just go away if we leave them alone?

There is no will to win under Obama.
BTW, the first thing we should train them to do is not drop their free weapons we gave them and run.
Matthew Hoh is a Senior Fellow at the Center for International Policy and is the former Director of the Afghanistan Study Group, a network of foreign and public policy experts and professionals advocating for a change in US strategy in Afghanistan.
A former State Department official, Matthew resigned in protest from his post in Afghanistan over US strategic policy and goals in Afghanistan in September 2009.
Prior to his assignment in Afghanistan, Matthew served in Iraq; first in 2004-5 in Salah ad Din Province with a State Department reconstruction and governance team and then in 2006-7 in Anbar Province as a Marine Corps company commander...

I'm not an Obama supporter but I'm smart enough to realize the Pentagon crafts foreign policy. Various generals and people within intel agencies "set the tone".
Obama would act no different than Bush if the US still had the same global "political capital" as it did just after 9/11. He tried to pull the same crap with Assad as Bush did with Saddam. Didnt work.
The international community will no longer put up with US led occupations. The US will probably train/fund Shia extremists in the end. Somewhat as they already did during the Iraq war.

Obama fired all the Generals long ago and placed his guys running the Pentagon. They are masters at figuring out how not to fight, how to decimate our military, erode our service men and women's morale and suck up to our enemies.
