Abstract

The article argues that the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) is not using the air power to its full potential in the Operation Inherent Resolve aimed to destroy the Islamic State terrorist group in Iraq and Syria. Topics include the reluctance of U.S. President Barack Obama to use the air power to its full potential, views of retired U.S. Lieutenant General Dave Deptula on limited use of air power against the Islamic State, and views of analyst Mark Gunzinger on the lack of strategy of DOD.
