‘You cannot defeat IS unless you retake Syria’
A senior research at the Institute of National Security Studies says that Islamic State cannot be defeated without dislodging the terror group from Syria.
Speaking to Hebrew website Ynet, Yoram Schweizer says: “Without removing Islamic State from control in Syria and Iraq it will not be dealt with.
“Reality in Syria is complicated because everyone knows that if you dismantle IS you strengthen Assad. It will be a full-frontal collision with them but it can be done,” he says.
