Fontes do Washington Post destacam um tipo de ação estratégica que se perpetuará nos padrões de guerra moderna de forma irreversível.
Os Estados Unidos da América através da CIA e do Joint Special Operations Command lançaram uma campanha ofensiva "secreta" (neste caso eufemismo para dissuasão explícita na mídia mundial) de missões de UAS* contra o autoproclamado "Califado" promovido pelo ISIS.

Em outras palavras, o governo americano promoveu um gracioso anúncio no Washington Post que um headhunter está selecionando "talentos" do ISIS, com direito ao grande prêmio principal do certame fatal patrocinado pelo Predator: uma passagem só de ida no 72 Virgins Express Dating Service!
Em respeito a valorosa religião islâmica e aos muçulmanos, quero dizer que me nego veementemente a empregar a expressão "Estado Islâmico" para definir esse grupo terrorista irresponsável de bárbaros que é o ISIS. Interessante o trecho da matéria jornalística que aborda parcialmente o cerne do protocolo conjunto da operação da CIA e o JSOC:
"...The clandestine program represents a significant escalation of the CIA’s involvement in the war in Syria, enlisting the agency’s Counterterrorism Center (CTC) against a militant group that many officials believe has eclipsed al-Qaeda as a threat.
Although the CTC has been given an expanded role in identifying and locating senior Islamic State figures, U.S. officials said the strikes are being carried out exclusively by JSOC. The officials said the program is aimed at terrorism suspects deemed “high-value targets.”
“These people are being identified and targeted through a separate effort,” said a senior U.S. official familiar with the operation, referring to the British militant, Junaid Hussain, and others killed in a recent weeks. Spokesmen for the CIA and the U.S. Special Operations Command, which oversees JSOC, declined to comment. Other officials would discuss the program only on the condition of anonymity..."
