A ground war sounds good, nobody thinks that ISIS would actually be able to stop a grand coalition. The problem is that the 'dream' gulf war that everyone talks about was were we had one enemy-a nation state, that relied on a huge standing army. Once we cut off the head, we had a nice easy time. It also helps that we left straight away.
The problem with ground troops is that we'd have to occupy these areas-do we think that its going to be easy? We'd have to accept causalities, we'd have to accept a lot more spending and we'd have to accept being there for a very long time
