Re: Does Iraq have the political willpower to stand up to ISIS and Al Kooky terrorism
NPR had a couple or three that seemed to be in the know ranking types.
It did not turn into a Demon vs Repug partisan time waster.
The one guy commented that corruption in the high ranking Iraqi Army is huge.
Those kuuunts withold pay from soldiers, on and on.
So they said it is no surprise when the Iraqi soldiers turned and ran away from ISIS because the mentality is why should i fight for some corrupt rip off.
Total chaos.
US needs to make it 51st state or turn it over to Iran.
Iraqi Army is never gonna do shit.

Big US/UK oil are still sucking Iraqi oil, and probably paying millions for murderous Rambo mercenaries to keep the oil flowing.
Western oil firms remain as US exits Iraq

The "savages" running, commanding ISIS so well are apparently the top Sunni/Baathist generals from Saddams' Army that Bremer, "nation builder", so brilliantly disbanded.
