ISIL must be defeated, period. End of story.

I would just say that any hopes of coordinating with Iran, who I consider to be just as evil as ISIS, is something that I would discourage for a number of different reasons.

Well, it is not a hypothetical. It is actually--it appears to be, quite frankly, we are relying on a military strategy built on rebels.
