Iraqi gov't forces try to retake Ramadi from IS

Where are the US special operational forces which obama authorized to deploy there?

Not at Ramadi. Ramadi is more an Iraqi forces with Iranian Shiites militia type of operation. Ramadi is not much of an US responsibility.

Then a year later he said they were "contained." What a buffoon.

Thanks for sharing your military pogue's point of view. I'm sure those in service who've been actual 'boots on the ground' have a variety of perspectives on what contained means.

Iraqi gov't forces try to retake Ramadi from IS

Where are the US special operational forces which obama authorized to deploy there? What havey done so far? Obama's strategy failed from the air. I thought he said, "Our objective is clear: we will degrade and ultimately destroy ISIS."

Then a year later he said they were "contained." What a buffoon.

“I think the fall of Ramadi is inevitable,” Warren told Pentagon reporters, cautioning that it will take some time. “It’s going to be a tough fight.”

And then what? Only for ISIS to "retake" Ramadi a month later?

Burning Bush, The Iraqis better not advance too quickly, lest they get hit by "precision" American bombs again. or Russian?

Russian have done what the US have not in two years in one month.
