Business Insider: Top US official: There is no exit strategy for the war against ISIS
A top US military official has told the House Foreign Affairs Committee that the US has no real end-game strategy for the ongoing fight against ISIS in Iraq.
General John R. Allen, a special presidential envoy to the Global Coalition to Counter the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, told the Foreign Affairs Committee that "there's no exit strategy" for dealing with ISIS in response to questions from Congressman Alan Grayson (D-FL).
Grayson had asked Allen about what the military's ultimate exit strategy was in ending the ongoing US-led operation against ISIS in Iraq.
