Kurdish, Iraqi, and U.S. officials met Monday in Erbil for the latest negotiations, which a coalition spokesman described as a major step toward Mosul. U.S. leaders have said that operation could begin as soon as the middle of October; surrounding towns already are being liberated. “We are ready,” said Omer, who also goes by Jamal Mohammed, or Jamal Eminki. “If we liberate Mosul, Daesh will be finished,” he said, using the preferred derogatory acronym for the Islamic State. On Thursday, Iraqi forces pushed into the center of Shirqat, a town south of Mosul and Erbil along the Tigris river. It lies near Qayyarah West, the Iraqi airfield that has become a key military base for massing U.S., Iraqi, and coalition forces that include French artillery units. U.S. commanders in Baghdad have placed a media blackout on the base, as they have over much of the American combat experience here. But the U.S. presence has been vital to the Peshmerga’s success against ISIS, according to several officers, from a platoon commander to the chief of staff, who spoke with Defense One this week at the Bnaslawa training camp and in ministry offices in Erbil.
