Democratic US presidential candidate Hillary Clinton says containing Daesh (ISIL) is not enough and that the United States should lead a fight to defeat the terrorist network. that the United States should lead a fight to defeat the terrorist network.
In a major foreign policy speech on Thursday, Clinton distanced herself from President Barack Obama’s strategy for defeating Daesh and called for greater use of American ground troops against the Takfiri group in the wake of the Paris attacks.
Clinton told the Council on Foreign Relations in New York she would intensify the fight against Daesh if she is elected president next year.
She called on the Republican-controlled Congress to approve the use of ground troops against ISIL, emphasizing that doing so would signal "that the US is committed to this fight. The time for delay is over. We should get this done."

Clinton said it’s time for the US-led coalition to broaden its efforts to smash the so-called ISIL caliphate.“The United States has been conducting this fight for more than a year; it’s time to be begin a new phase and intensify and broaden our efforts."“We should have no illusions about how difficult the mission before us really is … but if we press forward on both sides of the border, in the air on the ground and as well as diplomatically, I do believe we can crush ISIS’s enclave of terror,” she added.

Hillary has to distance herself from Obama or she might lose the election if the ISIS attacks get worse and if their let alone they certainly will.
Hillary of course has to keep her liberal dogmatic antiwar people in the Democratic party on her side as well placate the common sense democrats who don't just reject war based on platitudinous dogma in the face of the barbarism of ISIS.
It will be interesting to see what Obama does and says about this.

Anything is better than Obama's do nothing non intensity fight against this abnormal evil of ISIS.
In the annals of history Obama will be worst that a Neville Chamberlain. Obama is almost as guilty as ISIS for his neglect and lack of intense feeling of the absolute evil of ISIS.
Obama just doesn’t see, he’s blind
