#1 Y'know, we can keep on launching bigger and bigger offensives, but something needs to be done about Syria and Iran, and to a not-as-urgent degree, Saudi Arabia.

#2 Somehow I suspect giving the Iraqis live fire training on the twerps in their own country may have something to do with attending to Syria and Iran in the future. Might also reduce the bitching and whining about US casualties when it happens.

#3 I doubt Iran has much influence in the Haditha area. In addition, the theory that the Syrian govt itself is behind the Syrian terrorist infiltration isn't held very strongly.

Its simply trans national Salafist Islam that's the main problem.
