Great! Why not publish when their aircraft will arrive on the end of runway so the ISIS fighters can get properly set up for a rousing arrival. Perhaps an open house at the FOB after it is established -- talking never hurts... This CinC and his staff makes the Gang That Could Not Shoot Straight look like an Olympic Marksmanship Team. Call them Advisors -- I don't care what you call them as long as you don't call the enemy and announce their arrival -- Opps to late. I am surprised they did not text Osama before the raid with a text that said "You Gonna Die in exactly 12 hours or as soon as we can land in your compound!" We have now announced they are coming in -- we better have a great plan for getting them out incase all hell breaks lose. And how are you going to keep the Russians from hitting them since they will be advising the very fighters that the Russians keep bombing on behalf of Assad. <br />What ever happened to operational secrecy.

Sending "advisors" sounds very much like the initial stages of involvement in Southeast Asia where those advisors continued to become more involved than initially anticipated.

Additionally, the attempt to train and equip with expectations of self (whatever country we're talking about) to assume responsibility and control their environment sounds very much like Vietnamization.<br />This was before my time and I could be off base.

Which will it be? Under Obama, I fear the latter. Why not take a heavily support brigade sized element and go kill the bastards and keep killing them until ISIS is a word no one will say? We now have us supporting rebels to Assad, the Soviets bombing the rebels we support. ISIS owning 1/3 of Iraq and a piece of Syria (which the Russians [my age is showing by first calling them Soviets - but hey a duck by any other name is still a duck.....]are not bombing). Assad killing boat loads of civilians every week. Tens of thousands of muslims invading Europe. Now that ISIS has established it's Caliphate - we have a nation/state to declare war on in congress and then just go do what we do best - kill the bastards - all of them. Then stand back up Iraq - and patrol the streets like we did for over 20 years in Germany after WWII. Finally yes, take their damn oil to pay for the whole shooting match, once the bill is paid they can have it back.<br /><br />The idea that some how we lack the ability to subdue Assad, ISIS and the other muslim nut-jobs is a kin to saying that we didn't stand a chance against the unholy alliance of Germany, Japan and Italy.....well, I suppose if you try and fight a limited engagement at Omaha and Iwo Jima, one where your first goal is to limit civilian casualties rather than kicking the other guys ass - you might be right. But, roll over them like the pieces of human debris that ANYONE supporting ISIS is and it's very, very doable. Back to the 50 operators - God Bless and Keep Them, for our president will assuredly not.
