In this Aug. 9, 2014, photo, President Barack Obama speaks on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, about the ongoing situation in Iraq. The Obama administration is grappling with how to bridge the gap between its increasingly dire assessment of the threat posed by the Islamic State group and the limited, defensive air campaign it has so far undertaken, which military officials acknowledge will not blunt the group’s momentum.
