Will Kerry Ask Novorussiyans to Join Anti-ISIS Coalition?

I’m kidding, of course. But evidently some persons in eastern Ukraine that are of Russian extraction and know Russian war methods know how to wage a war. The Americans put a 2-star air force general in charge (Major General Randy Allen Kee), brought in the CIA, brought in mercenaries, supplied leadership and presumably some intelligence, had a numerical advantage of 2-1, had a weapons advantage, and lost. The American-Ukrainian side seems to have applied the standard American tactic of brute force and firepower on cities, but it proved fruitless. If a coalition led by American strategists intends to defeat ISIS, it may well need or could use some Russian know-how.
