BBC News: Reports " Iraqi forces have reached the besieged town of Amerli in northern Iraq, where thousands have been trapped by jihadists, military officials say. "
Lets Get Real:
One has to assume while the US airpower hit IS terrorist targets the Iraqi Government and Kurdish Forces had ground help from the US Special Forces and the SAS. Ever since the US started to strike IS forces have been pushed back, thus one can see why the UK upgraded its security level, the leadership of IS might think that since they can not take on the West in Iraq it might start to hit Western targets, as a way to show they can still hit back. IS is a threat to the Middle East and the West, it can not be contained, thus Obama sooner or later will have to give the green light for the US planes to hit IS targets in Syria, the Oval did not help itself by stating that the US didn't have a strategic plan when it came to IS in Syria. This is the kind of thing that worries voters. as the Pentagon stated it has plans for everything, it is just waiting the go order from the Oval. IS will be a long term fight, they have 2 billion in cash, through robbing banks and criminal schemes through the areas they control. They will strike back, depends when and where? Western intelligence needs its eyes and ears open, time to bug everyone if that what it takes to protect Western security.
