Lets Get Real:
One can only hope that President Obama finishes off Daesh before President - Elect Trump takes over, as the Trump policy in Syria seems to be be to allow the Russians a free hand. The problem is that the Russians are attacking those groups that are opposed to Assad, while leaving Daesh alone. The Obama Oval has nothing to lose, it should go all in to destroy Daesh, that would be real victory, anything less would be a failure, and let's be honest Obama does not have a great track record when it comes to foreign policy.
