I doubt they are coming directly from the US, but I bet if you check Turkish and Saudi Arabian stockpiles, they may be a little lower. Just looking at these videos shows how much of a quagmire the Russians and Iranians are in. The US wisely chose to keep boots off the ground, except for Special Forces. Which can come and go. They are also only focusing on Isis. But the real issue for the u.s. his, what will happen when Isis Falls and Western Syria is essentially open for the taking by anyone. Assume that power vacuum will be filled by the Syrian Army. But do they have the resources to do that right now. Such a move could dilute their Frontline forces, and simply create more Targets in the open desert.
