Someone is going to get ambushed and the need for marines flown in from a carrier battle group out in the med is about to happen?
Just like Afghanistan! When southern alliance forces ambushed our northern alliance buddies and we scrambled marines.
Its the plan to get Isis slaughtered than inject regular forces.
Well, it might. But the main thing is, they have to take their own land back. We can pay a lot for it , but dont want to be killed for it. That makes a lot of trouble in the home front by many coffins, handicapped and psycic handicapped.
You could join the special forces. Some are on the ground as soldiers.
