That isn't boots on the ground. That is status quo.

Uh no it isn't. Obama has been quoted as saying "no combat boots on the ground." It is not status quo if we send combat troops and special ops are combat troops, headed there to fight not to advise.

If you hear they've been preparing then I'll tell you that they've already been there.

I understand that you want to say that SoF troops = boots on the ground. Fine.

For all others. SoF does not = boots on the ground.

Pete: So if one SOF's person gets shot in a fire fight in Syria then he wasn't combat boots on the ground? That is what your gonna run with? You can't win this wordsmithing game. Like i am about to tell Codsect I am dealing in facts not your opinion.

Codsect.............You can tell me whatever you want. I am dealing in facts so send me some facts to back up your claim and i will rethink it if you have them.

Understood.

Just trying to stay in the real world.

We want to be able to tell the world that we have no "boots on the ground" while our SoF is causing havoc.

When you read the news or hear press conferences, that is the reality. When you read my posts and my solutions, that is the reality.

If there is going to be effective communication, we have to understand different languages I guess.

It's our opinion from experience. If the US Government said, "Hey we're sending in our special operators" there'd be another Blackhawk Down scenario where they are waiting on our arrival.

It is my opinion we have operators already there. Take it for what it's worth.

How will this protect America from terrorist attacks?

Open source info- 800+ SoF on the ground in Iraq.

The US still has zero boots on the ground.

See how that works.

http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/fp_thumb/images/user3303/imageroot/20140812_bots.jpg Despite reassurances that there will be “no US combat troops in Iraq again” on Friday, it appears – thanks to nuance of spin – that President Obama has changed his mind…
*OBAMA SAID TO CONSIDER SENDING ABOUT 75 MILITARY ADVISERS TO IRAQ: CNN
The question we have is – when does a “military adviser” stop being an ‘assassination consultant’ and start being a troops’ boot on the ground?

It won't. In fact it will do quite the opposite.

If you understand the language he is not.

Open source info has at least 800 SoF on the ground for months and months.
