IRBIL, Iraq ? Iraqi troops aided by U.S. airstrikes entered the besieged town of Amerli Sunday, residents and Iraqi officials said, after a months-long blockade by Islamic State militants that had surrounded the Shiite Turkmen village and raised fears of an impending massacre.

So much for those 20 aircraft the Iranians have lent to the Iraqis.
Look who had to save their asses again. This will cost American money and possibly military casualties. It is worth responding tit-for-tat on a rationed scale? The US could be doing this for years -- the USA should not be the Middle East police and fire department.
