:sigh: Whole article is disturbing. Republicans win Congress back and the only thing that changes is even MORE warmongering. Israel is in full control of the US military. AUMF against Syria....errr 'ISIS' won't be far off. Remember, 'ISIS' is a concocted and controlled story to gain approval, or at least ambivalence, from the population for yet another regime change invasion on your dime and with your blood.

eta: at least the comments are overwhelmingly against it, which is a rarity on yahoo based articles. not that it'll matter but people are getting fed up.The three key components of McCain’s approach are these:
Expand the U.S. force in Iraq from the current 2,300 troops to 10,000 to assist Iraqis troops. Rather than keeping U.S. service members confined to bases and headquarters, many of them would be dispatched to the front lines to direct or call in air strikes and take other steps to assist the Iraqis.
Establish safe zones or no-fly zones in neighboring Syria. McCain initially was reacting to news reports last year that ISIS was attempting to assemble a modest air force with pilots trained by Iraqi military defectors. While that threat has yet to materialize, McCain and administration officials have considered establishing a Syrian no-fly zone to protect civilians from airstrikes by the Syrian government.
Expand aid and military assistance to moderate Syrian rebels to help them fight back against ISIS and Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. As The Washington Post noted, Assad appears to be buoyed by months of U.S. and allied air strikes against ISIS that have taken enormous pressure off of him while he continues to destroy rebel forces seeking to topple him.
McCain said it’s an outrage that the Obama administration has pulled back and is no longer insisting that Assad step aside, although his regime is responsible for the deaths of over 200,000 Syrian civilians.
