Obama may have received actionable intel from his recent meeting with Gulf Cooperation Council [GCC] member non head-of-state representatives. This action may just be to win their favor lost with the negotiations with their arch-enemy Iran. He made a deal with their ''Devil.''
It may be a ''one of'' incursion. That area is already a declared ''combat zone''. ISIS has taken Ramadi, Iraq and is entering Palmyra, Syria another world heritage site they will probably destroy. Maybe it is also a physiological show of force. Nice that ISIS may have a new address ...
This may have been more for show that anything else -- a few predator drones might have been able to complete the task but Obama wanted the drama ;0) The USA has not invaded Pakistan since taking out bin Laden -- I doubt the USA is considering invading Syria.
I am sure the Gulf States would like no ISIS oil sold further depressing the world oil price -- there is economic reasons for this action too.
