sounds like they are responding to the questions being asked since the French have gotten involved... Want to bet the French have been driving this? Want to bet the administration has been holding back the military even though they had intel that could have crippled Isis.
More "cahoots"...

"WASHINGTON, Dec 10 (Reuters) - The U.S.-led coalition fighting Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria has killed the group's finance minister and two other senior leaders in air strikes in recent weeks, a U.S. military spokesman said on Thursday.
"Army Colonel Steve Warren told a Pentagon briefing that coalition strikes had killed Abu Salah, Islamic State's financial minister, as well as a senior leader responsible for coordinating the group's extortion activities and another leader who acted as an executive officer."

Putin is not doing it to combat ISIS, but to combat oil oversupply which hurts his country, "a gas station with an army". He'll probably sell his own oil to ISIS.
If it's true for me, consider that your unvarying opposition to Obama is the same problem.
Putin would probably say we're a Wal-Mart with an Army, with our main export being dollars and Treasury bonds. We must have some clever people to have kept the upper hand with that business model. Hope it's sustainable.
An update on Obama the Muslim and the US being "in cahoots" with ISIS...

"WASHINGTON — An elite U.S. Special Operations force has captured a significant Islamic State operative in Iraq and is expected to apprehend and interrogate a number of others in the coming months, ushering in a new and potentially fraught phase in the fight against the extremist Sunni militant group.
"U.S. defense officials described the capture as a crucial development in battling the Islamic State but said it also raised questions about handling what is likely to be a growing group of detainees.
"Although U.S. commandos have captured a handful of Islamic State fighters in Iraq and Syria in recent years, the Pentagon is faced with the prospect of detaining a larger group of captives and potentially reprising some of the darkest images of the war in Iraq, particularly the abuses at Abu Ghraib prison.
"The U.S. military has largely fought the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL, from the sky, and large numbers of Islamic State fighters have been killed in Iraq and Syria by U.S. airstrikes. The 200-member Special Operations team, made up mostly of Delta Force commandos, arrived in Iraq in recent weeks and is the first major U.S. force on the ground there since the United States pulled out of the country at the end of 2011.
"Defense officials said the team had set up safe houses and worked with Iraqi and Kurdish forces to establish informant networks and conduct raids on Islamic State leaders and other important militants."
