The US president said Wednesday he would **t flinch from sending US special forces to kill Islamic State group leaders, as he urged Congress for authority to take the fight to the extremists beyond their current footholds in Syria and Iraq if necessary. In Sydney, the Iraqi minister said ground forces were **t part of his government's plan. "We have never asked for a ground forces contribution," he said through an interpreter after meetings with Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.
