ambassador crocker: thank you, mr. chairman. you have outlined the complexity of what is truly a problem from hell. we have never really seen the formation of a collective arab combat force. arab armies fought against israel, 1948, 1967, did not go well. it was an effort to create an arab deterrent force in lebanon. in the 1970's, it became a syrian force. the other states with through their contingents. -- withdrew their contingents. my expectations are under control, let me pu tit that way. it would be possible to build such a force. certainly not without substantial u.s. engagement. then we would have to ask ourselves since islamic state has said repeatedly in its propaganda, the crusaders will come and we will destroy them, whether that would be a further rallying cry for them and their recruiting. we would have to think that through, which is what i started. in terms of weakening the regime, stopping a humanitarian slaughter and signaling to sunnis in syria as well as outside that we stand with them. right now, i do not thi

ambassador crocker alluded to this.the problem, we all have lots of different adversaries in the region, we prioritize been carefully. turkey i would say prioritizes the war with the kurds because they are internally threatened and as i've said it lost 3000 people in the conflict over three decades. next is assad and after that which they don't like him but have a strategic interest in avoiding a conflict with so that been reluctant to poke too much. i would say are so the opposite. we would isis on the top of those three, assad next and the kurds are not only lower down, they are a partner. and i would note in the past week alone we have seen turkey oppose kurdish representation in the opposition group that is meant to meet to try to deescalate talks. it's hard to imagine excluding turks from the opposition and tricky dick military action against the pyd which is one of our strongest forces in fighting i suspect that underscores a difference we have with turkey on some of these. you ask how to deal with it. i think you

maybe beginning with the ambassador crocker. >> .. during the acela where -- wore it quickly became a syrian force and the other states withdrew their contenders. so my expectations are under control, let me put it that way, that it would be possible to build and field such a force. certainly not without very substantial u.s. engagement and i think that would be key and then we'd have to ask ourselves since the islamic state has said repeatedly in its propaganda of the crusaders will calm and we will destroy them. whether that will be further for them in their recruiting. we would have to think that through which is why started with something incredibly difficult the notion of a no-fly zone to general keane may want to speak to the feasibility of that. i'm just a civilian, i don't know but in terms of the dynamic not eliminating the regime but weakening it, stopping a humanitarian slaughter and signaling to sunnis in syria as well as outside that we stand with them because right now i don't think they are persuaded. to get support in

crocker, something i wrote down, be careful when you get into. that's always a good piece of advice. thank you, gentlemen. important testimony. >> if i could continue on this point. russians began in late september. they had multiple in surgens. in late november, they shot down one of russia's aircraft. do you know how many times russia has invaded the space? >> i have no idea. i suspect they have not. >> what do you think that said about the connection between those two events and their willingness to enforce airspace rights? >> the pattern of the russians is exactly what we see. turkey was protecting sovereign airspace. they took reasonable action to do that. the russians have stayed away from it. and i think that would be the same situation dealing with no-fly zone. the russians are not fools. they're practical much they are in syria for one reason only. they have a very limited military objective. that is their goal. i cannot see them extending that to bomb a place where they are trying to protect innocent people. >> ambassador crocker, would

ambassador crocker says other people are the answer. we are after the same bowl.the goal is political unity ainge i am frustrated here because we spent so much time on this nuclear deal we should have been in and out of baghdad with high government officials, secretary of state on the ground, routinely. working with this new lead ministration to achieve the political unity the united states has won their political objective but we are not even close to achieving it. the kurds are still looking for money and still looking for the weapons that they need and we are not even close on the tribal force that we need from the sunnis. isis is occupying sunni land exclusively the the kurds have been able to retake the territory back. common sense tells you sunni travel force to hold the territory even if the iraqi army was able to reclaim it and without that it is not going to happen so that is why i have said you need to put more advisers, more trainers inert, have air controllers on the ground, and the ante considerably to convince the sunnis the we are serious about this
