BBC News: Reports " Pro-government forces in Iraq have formally launched an operation to drive Islamic State out of Anbar province. "
Lets Get Real:
This is a TEST case for how the Iraqi Army and Iran supported groups work together to take on IS, if Baghdad gets a stalled operation it causes BAD PR for Iraq and Western forces in Iraq. It should be noted that Iran backed groups were stalled in Tikrit and it took Western air power to remove IS from Tikrit. The US as stated many times in this blog needs ground troops, there is no way of winning without them, and the more time the Obama Oval takes to get to that fact the more time that IS has to build up its defences in the land it has taken. The next few days should be interesting!.
