The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Samantha Power,
says that "ground troops are necessary" to defeat ISIS.
"But," Power insisted this morning on MSNBC's Morning Joe, "they're not going to be American ground
troops."
"The president has been very clear: the form of
struggle against ISIL is not going to look like the deployment of thousands of
American ground troops and so forth. Right now we do have some troops
on the ground but they're performing a training and advising role," said
Power.
"Ground troops are necessary but they are not going to
be American ground troops. You have to get the Iraqis and ultimately the Syrian
moderate opposition groups up so they can fight the fight on the ground. There
has to be a fight on the ground. You can't do this by air. Everybody
acknowledges that.
"We also saw having deployed so many troops over so
many years that unless the Iraqis congeal and have a kind of inclusive
political system and have the military capability on the ground, anything we do
is going to be stop gap. So it requires more patience and it's really is going
to require more time because the troops are not in a state yet to do the full
rollback and to sustain the gains that they make. But they have to get there.
There's no work around the fact that the Iraqi army has to be the central part
of this solution."
Power went on to say that "at this point" she
doesn't see a scenerio where American ground troops would need to be in an
"enduring" effort to defeat ISIS.
