[QUOTE="Morsi, post: 1651602, member: 56840"] The pentagon, specifically the DIA predicted the rise of IS before it even happened in lieu of the fact that much of the Syrian rebels are salafists or radical islamists. The knew these factions would eventually lead to IS's creation yet felt it was nessesary in order to deter Iranian influence. When you consider the difference between U.S military strategy in Iraq as opposed to Syria this would appear to make sense. Air strikes against IS are being conducted with much more fequency in Iraq then they are in Syria. I dont think this is because our military commanders consider IS in Iraq to be more of a threat, rather they are operating from a proxy war mentality. Strikes against IS will also help Assad, quite clearly they have no intention of doing that, even if it means sacrificing thousands if not millions of innocent people.
