Voice of America: White House: No 'Large-Scale' Ground Operations in Stepped-Up IS Fight
The United States says it has "no intention to pursue long-term, large-scale ground combat operations" like in Afghanistan or Iraq, in its stepped-up offensive against Islamic State targets in Iraq and Syria.
Defense Secretary Ash Carter Tuesday said the change in strategy would include more airstrikes and possible ground assaults.
White House Press Secretary Eric Schultz Wednesday backed up Carter's statement, making clear the United States "retain[s] the ability to conduct limited operations [in Syria] with partners as opportunities allow."
Update: U.S. to Carry Out Direct Action on the Ground Against ISIS (Slate)
WNU Editor: No large scale operations .... but the Pentagon is conceding (somewhat) that U.S. troops are engaged in combat .... Pentagon: 'We're in combat' in Iraq (Washington Post).
Update #2: U.S. troops have been secretly fighting in Iraq for months .... New U.S. Combat Mission in Iraq Is Not New (Eli Lake & Josh Rogin, Bloomberg).
KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......

YOU CAN SKIP THIS PART(short joke)...
A young couple moved into a new neighbourhood. The next morning while eating breakfast, the young woman saw her neighbour through the window hanging the wash outside.
"That laundry is not clean," she said. "She doesn't know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap".
Her husband looked on, but remained silent. Every time the neighbour would hang laundry to dry, the young woman would make the same
comments.
About one month later, the woman was surprised to see nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: "Look, she has learnt how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this!"
The husband replied: "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
And so it is with life.
What we see when watching others depends on the purity of the window through which we look.
Easy to discuss other people, their lives and things that don't really concern us.
Yet we tend to forget- our window isn't that clean after all.
Clean up your window with the WORD! (THE TRUTH.)
LORD, please give us the strength, humility and courage that we may work on our faults first rather than seeing the faults in Others and castigating them.
Have a beautiful Week !
