The Iraqi Armed Forces

Any operations going on against the recent spate of violence in Iraq?
 
Al Qaeda is moving around freely next door in Syria, they have to be dealt with inside Syria.

To be fair, they've had a lot of free movement inside Iraq too in recent years.

In Iraq they did not have free movement, they were operating secretly hidden, hit and run shootings, suicide bombings, in Syria they are in public as there is no force to fight them in eastern Syria, now they smuggle weapons into Iraq, terrorr attacks increased.

Iraq can only solve it by offensive operations, cross into Syria if it doesn’t get solved by others.

But isn't it true that the IQSF only really have control over major cities? From what I've heard AQ has free movement in villages and certain other hard to reach areas.

Security forces have control over all cities and villages. The issue is that they attack with a large group in these unihabited areas which are guarded by a small number of soldiers. In cities they use (suicide)bombs. A few months ago they seized a little village but they all got killed a few hours later so they keep a low profile otherwise they will lose quickly.

Iraq-Syria border is poorly protected for some reason which is why they flood in.

AQ militants are probably using the same routes that the Kurdish militants use to go back and forth from Syria-Iraq-Turkey.
