Brig. Gen. Ahmed Asiri told The Associated Press on Thursday that Saudi Arabia has taken part in coalition airstrikes against IS since the U.S.-led campaign began in September 2014, but could now provide ground troops.

The United States is scheduled to convene a meeting of defense ministers from countries fighting IS in Brussels this month.

The Russian military says it has "reasonable grounds" to suspect that Turkey is making intensive preparations for a military invasion of neighboring Syria.

1. Ugh.

I thought Iran already had some troops there fighting somebody.

Isn't ISIS a child of Wahhabism and supported by some wealthy Saudis?

I'm sure there's still room for some Chinese and North Korean troops in there somewhere.
