That is interesting news SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL. I hope that the USA will allow our deployed forces to respond to attacks against their outposts is Iraq, Kurdish areas and in the Sinai for that matter. I hope they will also receive timely intel and be able to participate if required in missions to interdict ISIS, al Nusra Front and any other forces will evil intensions.

More than a couple of generals, now retired...or forced to retire...said the same thing before we pullled out of Iraq. The U.S. is great about mobilizing for war, but not so good at leaving a war zone. One of the key elements discussed by those leaders was to maintain a "node" of forces in the region to monitor activity and train were practical. They were right...they are still right...and we should adopt that strategy for the sake of our allies and our country. Just an opinion.
