re: Obama and the military brass at odds with strategy to fight ISIL

Blinken insisted that such deployments would not amount to combat “where Americans are on the ground leading the fight. That is not going to happen. That’s not part of this campaign. The president’s been clear about that.”

I certainly agree that it's a good idea to try this approach first.

I have my doubts about exactly which foreign troops are going to be on the ground and "leading the fight." IMHO, that will never happen.
