looks like the Obama strategy against ISIS has worked in Iraq. Isis is almost gone as a 'caliphate.'
without land, they are just another terror group.
Although they still have land in Syria. But the Russians and Syrians are working on that.
N A series of lightning advances over the past few days, Iraq’s army has seized control of most of western Mosul, the last redoubt of Islamic State (IS) in the country. On March 7th, a day that may have marked a turning point, army units took Mosul’s main government complex, as well as the city’s famous antiquities museum and about half of the old city. The airport had fallen a week or so earlier, and all roads in and out of the city in which the leader of IS, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, declared his ���caliphate†in June 2014 are firmly in government hands.
