Note that "vexation and exhaustion operations" precede conquest, or the "management of savagery," which then leads to the final stage of "the establishment of the Islamic State." The Islamic State will be "established" when the Caliph rules over Mecca. The people of Raqqa and Mosul have been under the "management of savagery," but the rest of us are still under the vexation stage -- the Islamic State has yet to be established. What exists in Raqqa is a Turkish, Saudi, Qarari, and US creation to battle Iran & Hezbollah. But the Obama-backed jihadis, many which came out of Gaddafi's prisons,  now have the best US/Qatari Special Operations Forces (SOF) training on the most modern weapons, and are able to pass that training unto others. Many will survive the approaching Battle of Raqqa.
