The United States seeking allies against the caliphate

The need for the United States is to fight the caliphate, but this requirement can not be carried out with only the American forces, both from the military and politically. In this assumption are enclosed in the limits that Obama has given to respond to the threat of fundamentalist Sunnis; it is a very thoughtful reasoning, which must reconcile, first of all military action in the very short term, and that policy over longer periods, to give a concrete stability in the whole region. But finding an agreement between countries in terms of war, means giving the foundations for a wider involvement in political and diplomatic on the one regarding the future of the region and its trim. The President of the United States, using American aircraft in support of Kurdish fighters and Iraqi regular army, is already derogating from the principle of doing his own country to undertake a new war on terror, unilaterally and without the practical support of other powers , well aware of the fact that without a unity of purpose that includes a wide international audience, every effort will be in vain. However, the need to defeat the caliphate is the most compelling of the rules of the doctrine of Obama and the White House must be taken, however, the role of leader of a possible alliance that will be formed to achieve this goal. Also because the interests threatened by the men of the Islamic state go beyond those of Americans, investing those of neighboring countries, until you get to threaten the whole of Europe. Moreover, since the beginning of the action against the army of the Islamic state of Iraq and the Levant, the United States had advance permission to bomb the Iraqi fundamentalist state, certainly not acting independently and so according to the rules imposed by Obama. The current scenario change the situation, since the intention of attacking the fundamentalists also from the Syrian side would be granted and paid by a government formally enemy of the United States, like that of Assad. In order not to cooperate with Damascus, as they seem to be the intentions of the United States and the Western powers in general, it should come from their own legitimacy by an international coalition, but not under the banner of the UN for the usual blockade imposed on the seat of the Security Council United Nations from China and Russia. With regard to the defense of Iraq and Kurdistan, the United States is able to aggregate seven countries (Albania, Canada, Croatia, Denmark, Italy, France and the UK), who are committed to providing weapons and other materials to Kurdish fighters , to which must be added the German, who apparently does not intend to provide weapons but the means of support, as a material for communications. This sort of coalition represents a beginning, especially to politically support the choice of Obama, but it is not enough to guarantee a most difficult task, such as to address the issue with Syria or the management of the Iraqi territories after a possible retreat of the caliphate. In this perspective, American diplomacy is at work with Australia, the United Kingdom, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and United Arab Emirates. The intention of the White House is to involve the Arab countries to support a moderate opposition to Assad, in a project that also seeks to undermine the Syrian dictatorship (a project which if taken at the beginning of the revolt would have perhaps prevented the birth of caliphate) and at the same time beat the men of the caliphate on the ground of Syria, while the other countries could contribute to the airstrikes conducted by the US forces. The action to trigger a fight to the Islamic state is playing then, however, it should also be noted that the objectives, also thanks to the alliance with the Iraqi government and the Kurdish administration, on the side of Iraq are well defined and delineated, both from the tactical point of view, that of managing more immediate, while the Syrian side the situation is more confused, and for relations with Assad, who for a situation that has arisen in an area where the United States can not count on allies and certain contacts; for this reason the business of gathering information, using drones and spy planes has already begun to allow and plan an attack in the best possible security.
