Critics in the Obama administration and U.S. military say ISIS has been operating more than 60 training camps since 2014 in areas of Syria and Iraq. The camps are said to be producing an estimated 1,000 fighters a month.
The officials voiced frustrations that ISIS training camps are not being vigorously struck.
"These camps give them a continuous, fresh flow fighters," said one official, "and little is being done to destroy them."
According to the officials, the U.S. military has been constrained from attacking the camps because many are located in or near residential areas and population centers and the White House fears strikes will produce civilian casualties.
Long War Journal reported in June that the number of terrorist training camps in Syria and Iraq continues to increase, for both ISIS and al Qaeda. The journal reported that more than 100 training camps have been identified in the two Middle East states.
Rep. Mike Turner (R., Ohio) said during a House Armed Services Committee hearing last month that key targets, including training camps, are not being bombed.
"There.s great frustration in the American public as we hear that there are attacks now happening to ISIS, and ISIL training camps that we.ve known where they are but no one.s attacking them," Turner said Nov. 18.
"Logistic, supply lines, sales of oil, other operations of ISIS and ISIL are going without challenge," he added. "So clearly the strategy that we.re doing is not working and is threatening our national security."

That’s ok. Russia’s not attacking them, either.
The best recruiting tool ISIS has. A chicken**it US president with an even bigger chicken**it waiting in the wings.

The strategy is working well from president Obama’s viewpoint.

“Bombing the Islamic State runs counter to the agenda revealed in Defense Intelligence Agency documents from 2012.
The documents show the United States and its partners in the Gulf states and Turkey supported the Islamic State and planned to establish a Salafist principality in Syria.
The Pentagon has admitted it `helped build ISIS’ and armed the group with weapons transferred from Benghazi, Libya.”
The DNC is over there recruiting someone with a sharp crease in his pants to run against Hillary.
The White Mosque and the Army of Hasan is MUCH MORE
comfortable arming al Qaeda, freeing terrorists,
and planning the bombing of American cities
than killing Islamic terrorists even when they
know where they are.
Hasan lives, and his protectors run the Pentagon.
Of course. Would you expect anything but?
Islam is the religion of the Left and ISIS is their army.
Why would they want to destroy them?

According to the Obama, its better that civilians here are killed instead.
0bama protecting his fiends..
Because the Terrorist in Chief is standing by his muzzy bros just as he promised he would.
