"Former New York Gov. George
Pataki is telling Iowans he would make fighting the Islamic State
group a
higher priority of the federal government by increasing U.S. airstrikes
against the violent militant group in the Middle East.
During
an appearance at the Iowa State Fair, the Republican presidential
candidate says the group that has claimed a swath of Iraq and Syria, and
has gained a presence in other countries such as Egypt and Libya can be
defeated without the U.S. sending front-line ground forces overseas.
To
about 100 onlookers, he said at The Des Moines Register's Political
Soapbox: "I would send in American special ops to destroy those
recruiting centers, those planning hubs, and kill them there, and get
out before they have the chance to kill us here." msn
