RUSH EXCERPT:

TAFURI: "I was not in the Obama Administration. I worked for his campaign and previous to that I worked for the state Department actually under President Bush. I was based in Baghdad. President Trump has a point the U.S. Department was slow to respond to ISIS and have a military campaign against ISIS in Iraq and in Syria. But it’s going pretty well now. I was in Iraq last in December, two months ago. And the campaign is going quite effectively. In fact, we have pushed ISIS out of the eastern part of Mosul. They are in the western part of Mosul. They will be out of Iraq soon. The real struggle right now will be to come up with a plan to pacify Iraq after ISIS is pushed out and to find a way to push ISIS out of Syria where the battlefield is very, very complicated. That’s where we don’t Noe what President Trump is going to do. He would make a mistake if he aligns himself with Russia."
