I would expect that there are deliberate campaign plans by now to strategically defeat ISIS - within the American military, by the Iranians, and probably a few others.
All that is going to be coming down on them.
Operations are underway now to clear them from around Ar Ramadi. It seems that they are being attritted in many areas, and not gaining ground anywhere in Iraq anymore. In fact, it looks like they are being slowly pushed back.
While the situation is being shaped on the ground and they are being attritted, they can be hit anywhere within their rear area, including Raqaa, whenever intel provides a target.
I would anticipate that an assault on the major city of Mosul (this Summer) will be supported by strategic attacks in depth to disrupt their supply, communications and command and control.
In summary, I expect a Summer of Death for ISIS in Iraq, and plan to be personally prepared with popcorn and cold drinks.
I will join you ! Also purchasing a nice quality cigar to smoke when it is announced that they have greased al Baghdadi

Kurd Kommandos wipe out ISIS attack at West Bashiqha with auto`s, RPG and tank fire.
BeauBo: If we see B-52’s moving into a forward position, the it will mean we will start destroying ISIS’s outer defense walls around Mosul. But again, Obama is such a coward that he would be yelling “collateral damage” and call the attacks off.
I hate commies in the White House.
