Pentagon looks at reoccupying chain of Iraqi bases | 11 June 2015 | The Pentagon is considering setting up a network of bases across northern Iraq from which American advisers would assist the Iraqi military campaign against fighters from the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant [aka I-CIA-SIS]. Gen Martin Dempsey, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, said the US was looking at creating a “lily-pad” of sites that would re-establish a presence in locations used by the US military when it occupied the country. If the Obama administration decides to implement such a plan, it would involve a further increase in the number of US troops that are being sent back to Iraq, Gen Dempsey said.
