So... the plan is more US involvement, closer to the front, and more US troops on the ground. What could possibly go wrong?

This isn't a "more boots on the ground" approach. Just more drone strikes.

Ah, so disregarding whether it is good or not, Obama drone strikes = baaaad, Trump = good? Obama did a lot of them and was criticized. Why should we want more?

This is the only thing Trump and I see eye to eye on. Destroying this Islamic state will benefit the world in untold ways.

Not according to the article you linked. Drones weren't even mentioned, just more troops there and for a longer time. i.e. a longer-term commitment. Wonderful!

Remember when Trump went on and on about a secret plan he had?

"There is a method of defeating them quickly and effectively and having total victory…. All I can tell you is that it is a foolproof way of winning the war with ISIS and it will 100% — at a minimum they’ll come to the table and actually they’ll be defeated very quickly."

HANG ON HERE.

ARE you saying Trump has a strategy!



you could knock me down with a feather, i had no idea trump even knew what a strategy was, nevermind actually forming one.

So? What is his strategy? i would love someone to link to it, because what i see is Trump is doing zero new. The defeat of isis is happening exactly as planned and explained the last couple of years. Nothing new, nothing changed.
