| ISIS, Islamic State |
In the wake of the news that President Obama had ordered limited bombing on ISIS mobile artillery units – a small hit with only two 500-pound bombs – experts were not shy about declaring their concern on TV about the Obama strategy.
The White House won't commit to stopping the genocide by ISIS -- as evidenced yesterday when White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest failed to provide an affirmative response to a question by the press as to whether President Obama would take every measure to stop the genocide -- And President Obama has conclusively ruled out any U.S. troops going into Iraq, whether his strategy of very limited air strikes successfully stop ISIS or not. The disjointed, anemic responses by the White House is not sitting well with military analysts.
Fox News Channel contributor Lt. Col. Bill Cowan told anchor Jon Scott that air strikes alone will not get the job done, and that at a minimum, non-U.S. troops on the ground will be needed, but that trained troops are not available from other sources.
