President Obama’s “pinprick bombing” campaign against the Islamic State is not working, said Senator John McCain (R., Ariz.)
“They’re winning, and we’re not,” he said on State of the Union on Sunday. “The Iraqis are not winning — the Peshmerga, the Kurds are not winning.”
As the jidhadist militants continue to move towards Baghdad, McCain said he did not expect them to take the capital city, but warned the group could seize control of the airport, which would be “crippling.”
“There has to be a fundamental reevaluation of what we’re doing because we are not degrading and ultimately destroying ISIS,” he said.
