“GOP presidential candidate and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham has called for sending 20,000 troops to Iraq and Syria to defeat the Islamic State. Graham believes the administration should increase the number of military advisers in Iraq from 3,500 to 10,000 to include special operations forces to help the Iraqi military on the front lines and improve the accuracy of airstrikes. He said that a similar number of troops should be sent to Syria to assist regional forces and combat the Islamic State (ISIS). He reserved particular criticism for Hillary Clinton and Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, both of whom have suggested that the United States could avoid deploying troops to the region.”
