It is being dubbed “the largest air assault since 2003.†US forces are sweeping through villages in Northern Iraq but some say that the operation was nothing more than a photo-op.

Meanwhile, the participation of the Iraqi army in Operation Swarmer is being high-lighted by the US military and major media.
