In 2003, a US-led coalition invaded Iraq and removed Saddam Hussein from power. Since then, the security situation has been very instable in the country.
In 2014, an insurgency escalated into a full-scale military conflict with ISIS expanding in large areas in Iraq. Over the next three years, Iraqi security forces, supported by some global and local powers, were working to push ISIS out of the captured territories. Iraqi forces made significant gains and started storming the last remaining ISIS stronghold of Mosul.
There is no US Led Coalition in Syria No US general is telling any group what to do.. US does provide some limited support to the Kurds and their allies but that is all.
es, but isn’t it weird that the US and the rebels both hate Assad, and that the US is arming the rebels, and that Assad is allied with Russia? Does that sound familiar to you? It should, because it is almost exactly what happened in afghanistan, with the US arming rebel groups, one of which ended up becoming al qaeda…
