Watch: Former Navy SEAL Jocko Willink discusses America and the war on ISIS

Former Navy SEAL Jocko Willink talks about seeing the ISIS flag flying over the government building in Ramadi. He said it was horrific to see that image not only because of those who gave their lives to defend that city during the Iraq War, but also because of the Iraqi families who must now live under ISIS control. Jocko also makes the point that America is not ready to make the sacrifice necessary to eradicate ISIS. America lacks the will to kill and the ability to come to terms with the realities of war.
