another $5.6 billion to fund the fight against ISIS. The troops will
not have a combat role, and will operate from bases outside Baghdad
and Erbil.
To date, Anbar province and Taji district have been considered as two
likely locations for operations centers outside of Baghdad and Erbil.
CNN reported last week that the military was preparing plans to deploy
U.S. advisers to Anbar, much of which is under the control of ISIS.
Wonder why he cant send them to Nigeria to fight Boko haram. #just_saying
