The United States "will lead a broad coalition to roll back" the "terrorist threat" posed by ISIL, President Barack Obama will say Wednesday night, according to excerpts of his 9 p.m. EDT address released by the White House.

"Our objective is clear: we will degrade, and ultimately destroy, ISIL through a comprehensive and sustained counter-terrorism strategy," Obama will say.

The president will explain why, in his view, the involvement in Iraq and Syria is not the same as beginning another war in the region.

"I want the American people to understand how this effort will be different from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan," Obama will say. "It will not involve American combat troops fighting on foreign soil."
