Note the Quotes in the Headline
The BBC described the latest special operations action in Iraq as "US-Iraqi Rescue Operation 'Foils IS Mass Execution'."
I'm inclined to put a quote around "Foils Mass Execution" too.
It strikes me that this operation was more likely driven by concerns about increased Russian influence, and success, in the region that it is by high quality actionable intelligence.
I believe that the slang for this is "Wag the Dog".
