Sunni today with extremist cells in the north and west. Coalitions forming in the afternoon, giving way to air strikes overnight. Expect scattered ISIS by morning. Your extended forecast: Boots on the ground.
The President doesn’t want to send troops to the Middle East. Unfortunately, years of golfing, dithering and not strategizing have left him in a corner. At this point it is either sending troops or doing nothing. The forecast is indeed for boots on the ground.

No kidding. I remember when we sent “advisors” to a small country in Indo-China. That went well. Guess Obama skipped history class.

They’ve already said that yes, there need to be boots on the ground as well as air strikes, just not American ones.
