Scott Walker: No need for US combat forces in Iraq
[Iran Press TV] Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) has said that Iraq does not need any American combat forces to fight the ISIL Takfiri
...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed...
terrorist group.

Walker made the remarks on ABC News's "This Week," aired Sunday when asked whether he would want to dispatch US troops "to Iraq now if he were commander in chief."

"I believe right now we have a capacity to reclaim Iraq with the Iraqi forces that are there as long as we unleash the power that is already there of the American armed forces".
