I don't see what troops on the ground would accomplish. We'd be able to take control over areas, but who would keep them? Even the Kurds (Peshmerga?) in Iraq ended up running. The PKK in Syria [edit - and Iraq] might be capable but Turkey is NATO.

I suspect we'll escalate the bombing and drone strikes though. Maybe we can keep them on their heels.
