We have been bombing the Hell out of ISIS for weeks now……so how is the war going?
We Americans want to know that we are winning the war at this point….after all we have the best air force in the world….so how we doing?
Maybe maps will give my reader an idea…..first map is the area controlled by ISIS before the airstrikes….
This second map is the area controlled as of 7Oct14…..
How shall we spell success?
Can anyone else see a problem here?
This is NOT looking promising for Baghdad.
What do those maps mean? The best air force in the world needs support from the ground or the bombing program is ineffectual.
If ground support is needed and the US is out of the question…..who will be that force on the ground? A good question and so far NO good answer.
Just read this morning that the air strikes have actually pushed back ISIS in their attempt to take over the Kurdish town of Kobani. Let’s hope it holds
Larry there is another report…….
The ongoing battle of the Kurdish town of Kobani (Ayn al-Arab in Arabic) is continuing to go extremely poorly, and US airstrikes on the advancing ISIS forces are having no real impact on the situation on the ground. Without intervention the town will not last much longer….
