Have to think JSOC is right in the middle of it right now. If NATO and the US plays this right, the current state of the ISIS should be easily defeated. Stop the ethnic genocide at least for the time being.

One thing to be wary of is America and NATOs penchant for arming the enemy of our enemy.
In that frontline episode I posted above, they go into detail on the payments to various groups in Iraq that occurred as way to buy peace that have since been used to fund and arm radicals like these.
It's from the same playbook as the Mujahadeen.
Edit: We're talking hundreds of millions of dollars to Sunni tribes. Patreus authorized hundreds of millions of dollars in what are essentially bribes that are now being used to fund ISIS.
