Do you think US Army should go back into Anbar province? [View all]

And try to re-capture Ramadi?

This was a Sunni stronghold until the "surge" of 2007-2008. At that time, the American military was sent into Ramadi and other areas of the province with a "surge" of both troops and money. It was a last-ditch effort to attempt to stave off an outright military defeat. It is debatable which had the most impact - the military or the money?

After the American troops withdrew, the Iraqi government in Baghdad discontinued support for the militias and rebels in Ramadi and many are now their ISIS enemies. The Iraqi government in Baghdad is primarily supported by Iran and any American support against ISIS should be seen as aiding Iran and the ayatollahs moreso than the "Iraqi government".
