　　奥巴马(Obama)政府昨日开始为其击败伊拉克和叙利亚境内伊斯兰主义极端分子的承诺，争取阿拉伯领导人、欧洲盟友以及美国国会的军事和资金支持。

　　Ten Arab states, led by Saudi Arabia, announcedduring a visit by John Kerry, secretary of state, thatthey would join the US in a strategy to destroy theIslamic State in Iraq and the Levant, Isis, “wherever it is, including in both Iraq and Syria”. TheUS received early support from France and Germany, and the UK, although contradictorystatements in London left the full extent of Britain’s participation unclear. Administrationofficials briefed members of Congress ahead of a vote, expected next week, to approve extrafunding to train so-called moderate Syrian rebels to help in the fight.

　　以沙特阿拉伯为首的10个阿拉伯国家在美国国务卿约翰•克里(John Kerry)到访期间宣布，他们将加入美国的行列，共同推进摧毁“伊拉克和黎凡特伊斯兰国”(Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant，简称ISIS)的战略，“不管它在哪里，包括伊拉克和叙利亚”。美国早先得到了法国、德国和英国的支持，尽管伦敦发布的自相矛盾的声明令外界不太明白英国的参与程度。奥巴马政府官员在预计下周进行的投票之前向国会议员们做了简报，该投票将批准拨出更多资金，训练所谓的叙利亚温和派叛军，让他们在战场上出力。
