Daily Mail: Obama: 'We don't yet have a complete strategy' to stop ISIS in Iraq
* Iraqi security forces have failed to keep pace with ISIS fighters, exposing the need for revisions to the joint training program
* 'We don't yet have a complete strategy,' Obama said during a press conference at the conclusion of the G7 summit today
* Reason: 'It requires commitments on the part of the Iraqis as well about how recruitment takes place, how that training takes place'
* 'And so the details of that are not yet worked out,' he said; remark is sure to fire up Republicans, who've said all along he doesn't have a good plan
Nearly a year into the fight against ISIS, the U.S. still doesn't have a 'complete' strategy to end the terrorist group's bloody rampage across Iraq, President Barack Obama admitted today.
