It seems the Iraqis, the ex PM, have voiced an opinion of the crusader coalition efforts at "finding and exterminating ISIS, wherever they are".

‘US-led coalition disjointed in fighting ISIS as some members have own plans’ – Iraq's ex-PM

"The US-led coalition has been "unbelievably" inefficient in fighting the terror group Islamic State, possibly because some members have their plans for the terrorists, Iraq's former PM told RT.

“It's unbelievable and unacceptable that more than 60 nations comprising this coalition that have the most modern aircraft and weapons at their disposal have been conducting their campaign in Iraq for 14 months and IS still remains in the country,” he told RT's Arabic-language sister-channel Rusiya Al-Yaum.

“Some members of the coalition have their own strategies that account for ISIS either continuing to exist or being destroyed. They also consider what would happen after ISIS’s destruction. I believe they are indecisive, trying to calculate what happens. What will be the situation in Iraq, in the region, will the map look the same? Or maybe ISIS is a key instrument for changing the situation in Iraq and the region?

“The Russian involvement in Syria and the intensive bombings have stopped the offensive of many terrorist groups. This involvement hurt the terrorists a lot and inspired the Syrian troops. Russia's actions also stunned the international coalition. In just days and weeks Russia delivered strikes against major terrorist positions in Syria. And where is the intentional coalition of more than 60 nations that had achieved nothing in 14 months in Iraq?”

And yet less just 9 months ago when speaking about a new American law regarding Iraq ans Syria, the POTUSE claimed he had ISIS, and other linked terrorist organisations "demoralised, our coalition is on the offensive. ISIL is on the defensive, and ISIL is going to lose"
