Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  (CNN) Ki a Lt. Colonel John Schwemmer, he tino mōhio te tirohanga. Ko tana haerenga tuaono tēnei ki Iraki, ā, kua hoki mai ia ki te mahi i tētahi mahi i whakaritea ki a ia i mua: ko te whakangungu i ngā hōia Iraki. Ko Schwemmer me ētahi atu kaimahi hōia a U.S. kei runga i te whenua i Iraq, e whiu ana i ngā hōia kāwanatanga kāore i tino rite ki te whakangungu. Kua tae mai rātau ki konei i mua, engari i tēnei wā, e whakaaro ana ia, kei te tika rātau. Engari ehara ko te hōia o Amerika anake te rōpū o ngā ope ki te Uru i te rohe - he tini o ngā tāngata ke, tae atu ki ngā Amerikana, kua tuku mai ki te whawhai ki a ISIS. Kei te piki haere, kei te whakakiihia ngā mahi whakangungu hōia a U.S. e ngā tari o waho, e mahi tahi ana me ngā hōia kāwanatanga o Kurds, tae atu ki ngā hōia i Iraq me Hiria. "He tokomaha o mātou e whakaaro ana kei a mātou ngā pūkenga me ngā tohu e taea te whakamahi hei painga mō te hunga i te rohe", i mea a Ian Bradbury, he hōia o mua o Kanata e whakangungu ana i ngā ope Peshmerga o Kurds i te raki o Iraki. Ahakoa he uaua ki te kii he maha nga kaihauturu ke e whawhai ana ki a ISIS, he kaikorero mo te roopu Kurdish e whawhai ana ki a raatau i Hiria - e mohiotia ana ko te YPG - i kii ki te New York Times neke atu i te 100 nga taangata o Amerika kei roto i o raatau ope. E ai ki ngā rangatira o te ture o Amerika, he mea ture te whakauru atu ki tētahi hōia o Hiria. Engari kua whakatūria e ētahi whakahaere he kaupapa kimi kaimahi i runga ipurangi, e whakaatu ana i ngā tono mō ngā kaiwhawhai o tāwāhi me ngā rārangi tirotiro o ngā mea hei kawe mai, me ngā tohutohu mō te kawe mai i ngā kākahu ā-tinana puta noa i ngā rohe o te ao. Ko Jordan Matson, 28 tau te pakeke, he hoia o mua o te ope taua o U.S. mai i te taone iti o Sturtevant, Wisconsin, i whakauru ki te YPG. I kii ia ki a CNN i muri i te nui o te rapu wairua ka mohio ia me awhina ia ki te whawhai ki te ture whakaraerae, whakaraerae a ISIS. "I whakapā atu ahau ki te YPG i runga i Facebook, ka inoi mo te marama kotahi, e rua ranei, ka ui, 'koinei taku e hiahia ana ki te mahi?' a, i te mutunga, e mohio ana koe, i whakatau ahau ki te mahi. "Ko taku oranga katoa i hiahia ahau ki te noho hei hoia... no reira ko taku whakaaro he pai tenei ki konei". Engari ko nga kaiwhawhai ke ehara i te...
Kei te piki haere te tokomaha o ngā toa o tāwāhi ki te whawhai ki a ISIS i ngā rārangi o mua. Ki ētahi o ngā hoariri o te rōpū jihadist, kāore i te manakohia ngā hōiho ke hei hoa.
