its ability to gain sanctuary in syria was helpful but also ability to take advantage of grievances among the sunni populations who identified their government in baghdad was a key component of isis getting into that area. >> all right. what would be your recommendation to the trump administration about how to handle u.s. forces there? we've got several thousand that are on the ground there, mostly special forces, advisors, and targeters. but should we negotiate a more permanent presence there? of troops, 10,000 or so, of the kind that president obama refused to do in 2011? >> yeah, i think there's no question right now the u.s. needs to recognize that iraq does have a strategic importance for the united states. i don't think it requires a large number of u.s. conventional forces. >> right. >> but i do think it does require for the u.s. to remain, to remain and have access to iraqi bases, to continue to train iraq's counterterrorism service which was incredibly

sense of urgency. this has been so difficult on healthcare. i think this is a congress that knows that they and the trump administration are going to be judged on economic results, on their performance, and that might speed things along sort of tamp down some of these divisive debates. >> it is really do-or-die on tax reform especially if they can't pass healthcare. still ahead, iraq's prime minister declares victory over islamic state in mosul. is the war against the terror is the war against the terror group really coming to an end?♪ ♪ more kinds of crab than ever, new dishes, and all your favorites. only while crabfest lasts. red lobster. now this is seafood.

important in the retaking of mosul and will be in the retaking of other cities, including another city in iraq. to continue to train iraqi police forces which will be the bedrock for law enforcement in fallujah and ramadi and other sunni-heavy cities in the future. so those are some of the key issues. and to keep -- try to push out and then demobilize some of the sh shia militia forces operating in the country right now which is counterproductive for the u.s. forces. >> counterforce, politically to iranian influence in iraq and i assume a balancing role politically. you have the kurds in the north. you have the shiites in the south and the east. and then you have the sunnis. so there's kind of a political balancing role here too. >> yeah, i think there is a clear political balancing role. the kurds in the north have generally been pretty effective over the long run in taking care of their own security.

amount of iranian support here and the number of shia militia in iraq is staggering right now. almost 150,000 mobilization -- >> wow. >> that's pretty significant. it actually shows how much influence iran has in iraq right now. >> all right. now the campaign against islamic state also making progress inside syria, where the fall of the headquarters in syria could also be heading that way. is that victory? that liberation imminent too? >> probably not imminent. i think if the liberation of mosul tells us anything, it's some of the villages and cities that sit south along the ewe -- euphrates river valley are going to be brutal, car bombs, children will be used as shields in the fighting. i think it is likely going to be intense. but i think in the end the americans will likely prevail with their local allies and

remove most of isis from these towns and villages. >> okay. let's assume that liberation does take place, you've written for us this week that already the jihadists from islamic state are spreading out and returning in essentially to their insurgent strategy, blending into villages, smaller towns, waiting for another opportunity to regroup and no doubt committing terror along the way. what has to happen on the part of the iraqi government and the u.s. to make sure that isis doesn't revive? >> well, i think at the core we have to remember that this is primarily a political struggle going on, not a military one. and if we look at some of the anbar cities like fallujah and ramadi. fallujah was cleared by the u.s. in 03. >> right. >> then we had insurgents move back. it was recleared. the last decade and a half has been constantly reclearing some of these cities. so i think what has to happen is in particular in sunni areas,
