While there may be stuff I don’t know about, this strategy (or whatever you name it), seems increasingly obvious.
From what I’ve heard, Iran is somewhat alarmed about ISIS and seems ready to defend Iraq. Should that happen, we should really cheer them on — from the sidelines, of course.
If that doesn’t happen, we should be very disappointed that no countries in the region feel threatened enough to act, also from the sidelines.
There does not seem to be any way to win in that region, not to mention that there does not seem to be any way to even define what it is to ‘win’.
I don’t count claiming victory while standing under a MISSION ACCOMPLISHED banner as winning.
