What a Revolting Development This Is!

1-US to dispatch 3,000 military personnel to West Africa to confront the spread of Ebola virus, (a potentially WMD, in my book). I believe US Forces will be mainly erecting hospital tents, setting beds, placing support facilities. Not sure of a medical staff involved. No clue when and if they deploy. 2-The SOD and JCOS testified today before Senate. They were grilled on the Iraqi/Syrian 'plan' and ROEs that may cover air strikes and ground support mainly in Syria. The original ROEs in the Iraq still stand, since US is just re-visiting the theatre of war, pp didn't end on 12.31.2011. 3-Those countries of the willing, who want to join the Coalition against "IS" are few, if any. If fact, those who want to fight will do so with US at 30,000 ft elevation. 4-Currently, the only ground forces are the Kurds up North and rounded up Iraqis and willing Sunnis to South to Baghdad. What happens South of Baghdad with Shirs and Iran is but a mystery. 5-The Syrian Civil War was discussed, and how one fights in a three headed front. "IS" and Assad are enemies/atwar with each other and the Syrian Rebels are at war with both and vise-versa. The Coalition to join up with the "good" Syrian Rebels. 6-Sounds confusing, it is indeed. 7-So far, 170 US airstrikes have been made since 08.08.2014 YTD. That is at a rate of 170 strikes/39 days = 4.4 strikes per day and that is just in Iraq.
