The US only recently started targeting Oil trucks and rigs. For over a year, ISIS was making millions of dollars of oil money every month money via Turkey. The US was never serious about degrading ISIS. To me personally, it appeared to be just a time-holding tactic to get rid of old munitions and have a war on the cheap until Obama passed from office and could give the entire mess to his successor.
It was only after the Russians started making the US look incompetent by flying more sorties in a couple of days then the US did in a month, did the US begin to start bombing in earnest.
Even laughable is PBS showing footage of Russian bombing and claiming it to be American.
