On Midrats 30 April 2017, Episode 382: The Road to Mosul to Raqqa, and What's Next for the Islamic State with Bill Roggio

Please join us on 30 April 2017 at 5pm EDT as we end a short hiatus for Midrats Episode 382: The Road to Mosul to Raqqa, and What's Next for the Islamic State:
Except for a few final holdouts and mopping up, the siege of Mosul is almost over and the wrecked city back in the hands of allied Iraqi factions. Soon the attention will turn west as the investment of Raqqa is setting up nicely.

As they lose actual ground in Iraq and Syria, what will the next step be for the Islamic State? Where will they move to as their next safe haven, and what should be expect from the thousands of fighters trained by them who will return to their home nations?

Our guest for the entire hour to discuss this and related issues will be Bill Roggio, Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Editor of FDD’s Long War Journal.
