US: Ideology and ISIS funds must be destroyed

Kerry said the military operation alone is not enough to beat ISIS.

United States Secretary of State John Kerry said all members of the international coalition against a group calling itself the Islamic State or ISIS agreed that the ideology of the group was to be destroyed.

In the first high-level meetings of the international coalition in Brussels, Kerry said the military offensive was not enough to defeat the group.

He said it was important to destroy the ideology, funding and recruitment.
"Daesh (Nation of Islam) is still committing crimes harm but there is consensus that the momentum they did two and a half months ago has stalled," said Kerry.

But to destroy the ISIS have to "defeat the ideology, funding, recruitment and addressing the suffering they caused to the people in the region".

When asked about reports that the camera captured Iranian jets flying over Iraq, Kerry said, "When Iran faces (ISIS) in a certain place ... certainly will have an impact and be a positive."

But he refused to comment on whether Iran attack has occurred.
He said depending Iran and Iraq to do so.


But he said Americans do not coordinate military operations with Iran. (BBC)
