Washington, August 30 (RHC)-- The Barack Obama administration is reportedly mobilizing allies for possible U.S. military action in Syria. The New York Times, citing unnamed officials, says Obama is also planning to expand airstrikes against Islamic State militants in northern Iraq.
Earlier this week, Obama vowed to continue action against the militants after they killed U.S. journalist James Foley. The U.S. president said that Washington "will continue to take direct action where needed to protect our people and to defend our homeland."
