Containment of ISIS/L.

August 27, 2014
Islamic State (IS) (click here) militants have committed "mass atrocities" in Syria, including the recruitment of children as fighters, the United Nations says.
In a report, investigators say public executions are a "common spectacle" in areas run by IS, which recently joined fighting against Syria's government.
The report also accuses the Syrian government of using chemical agents in eight separate incidents this year.
The conflict between government forces and several rebel groups began in 2011.
Some 200,000 have died since then....

Containment will occur when all the countries surrounding Syria hold their borders without weakness and Assad targets the group from the interior. To trust any rebel movement would be to undermine the ability to effectively contain Syria's civil war to it's borders.
