No mention of resupply efforts for the Kurds. They have been begging for light and heavy arms and ammo. Especially anti-tank weapons and heavy machine guns (50 BMG).
And food for the fighters and civilians. Imagine the impact of months of fighting on local food and supplies.
US has not mentioned that.
The air strikes have been more effective since the targeting has been directed by the Kurds. Air strikes alone will not solve this.
Kurds will fight. Kurds have sheltered Christians and other faiths from literal “slaughter” by ISIS Terroristsm, in both Iraq and in Syria.
