A House Democrat charged Wednesday that the Islamic State is getting free power from Iraq, and said “extreme” rules of engagement are preventing the United States and Syrian allies from ending that arrangement.

“Our rules of engagement in bombing have been so extreme that, I mean, we continue to see ISIS getting free electricity from the Iraqi government through generation [and] transmission facilities that we will not bomb,” Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said Wednesday on C-SPAN.
