A new bipartisan report to Congress warns ISIS is back. The terror organization was defeated in Iraq two years ago by coalition troops who were supported by the U.S. military. Now, Retired Army Major General Dana Pittard, who commanded that mission, along with Retired Air Force Master Sergeant Wes Bryant, who was on the ground in Iraq, have written a new book. Hunting the Caliphate: America’s War on ISIS and the Dawn of the Strike Cell, is an honest and harrowing account of how fighting ISIS in Iraq changed modern warfare forever. They also tell Soledad what the U.S. needs to do right now to stop an ISIS resurgence.
