File under: Islamic State

#1 He outlined four prongs to this strategy: (1)systematic Arclight airstrikes, (2)increased support to forces on the ground, (3)increased counter-terrorism efforts to cut ISIS’ funding and counter its message, (4)and provide humanitarian assistance to the displaced.

If this were basketball:
1) shoot for 3 points
2) double-team the zone
3) strategic fouls
4) play the bench

#2 "Kobani does not define the strategy for the coalition in respect to Daesh,"

IIRC, ISJV was running the table and Kobani was very much in doubt. There was no public US support for the Kurds until: the Yazidis fled to Kurdistan instead of Iraq or were enslaved and raped, brutal ISJV propaganda was released, that gal gave a grand speech in the Iraqi parliament, and the Kurds won Kobani.
