Restrictions and weak Iraqi troops crippled the US-led anti-ISIS campaign.

Evidence

The Iraqi government allowed the U.S. military mission only a severely restricted aerial campaign. Also hampering the effort, the Iraqi army had inadequate troops to fight the ground war. Iraqi ground forces were inex-perienced, poorly equipped, and plagued with low morale and desertions. — Albert Bandura, Moral Disengagement, 2486
