During a Pentagon briefing Thursday, Dempsey said it's possible to contain the Islamic State militants, but it can't be done permanently without going after the group in Syria. Speaking to reporters with Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, Dempsey said he wasn't predicting U.S. airstrikes in Syria, but said the problem must be addressed diplomatically, politically and militarily by America and its regional partners.

In this handout photo released by the Greek Culture Ministry on Monday, Aug. 25, 2014, two battered marble sphinxes are seen under a barrel-vault topping the entrance to a late 4th Century B.C. tomb under excavation at Amphipolis in northern Greece. Archaeologists excavating the large grave mound have partially investigated the interior of the underground tomb _ which appears to have lacked a door in the doorway under the sphinxes _ the ministry said Monday. But it seems most likely that the tomb was plundered in antiquity. (AP Photo/Culture Ministry, HO)
