Unfortunately I believe you're right.
The ten year war in Afghanistan is why Russia fell apart. What started as a complete crack down ended with a withdrawal from Afghanistan and the return of 15,000 Red Army soldiers in coffins. Why would it be any different now?
Its been proven before in both Afghanistan and Iraq that air strikes kill thousands of innocents, not just through direct hits but the aftermath of a destroyed infrastructure, but are nothing more than a fart in the wind to people like ISIS.
Our massive air assaults will merely push more Syrian refugees over the borders and the dessert will become a stronger and more formidable force. It needs Massive western boots on the ground if its going to have any chance of succeeding but with the Gulf Arab backers pouring their fortunes into military aid nobody can predict the future of Syria and other middle eastern countries.
I find it baffling that so little is being said about the Saudi's because from where I'm sitting, they are have a massive hand in this.
