U.S. Special Forces Are Waging War Against The Islamic State Via Through Cell Phones


Washington Times: Special operators lament Islamic State strategy: ‘We are doing everything through cellphones’

Special operations forces are aggravated over being largely held back from the fight against the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria.

Top U.S. special operations commanders say they are building forces for a multi-generational fight — not a war that will be won in the next few years.

“We recognize this is a longterm prospect,” Gen. Joseph Votel, the leader of U.S. Special Operations Command told The Daily Beast during a special operations forum in Tampa, Florida. “We’re patient.”
