Well isn’t that just great!
Let’s just bring our guys home and let them, muslims, all just kill each other off.
Obama’s plan is working.
Just a few weeks ago, the big news that Iraq was on the march to retake Mosul. The effort stalled and the real prize for ISIS has just fallen.
Must have some french in their blood. A new Surrender Monkey is born.
why is it that the Iraqi army is a disorganized mess of cowards and ISIS is this unstoppable steamroller? they draw their forces from the same population afterall.
what a dumpster fire of a mess. am I wrong to long for the days of Sadamm? at least we knew what we were dealing with. I was all for the Iraq war and the arab spring but I think I overestimated the character of the populations that were being “liberated”. its clear to me now that democracy is beyond them.

We can fight them over there or we can fight them here.
Not fighting them isn’t an option so take your pick where you want to do it.
The Iraq army has a lot of Sunni Muslims in it, and we expect them to fight to the death against Sunni ISIS, for the benefit of the hated dominant Shiite heretics, and their secular Infidel collaborators.
Not much incentive there. - Tom
Iraqi troops turning and running is now Zero’s preferred way to transfer arms and equipment to ISIS.
Why do they drop their weapons when they run off?
I wonder if we are doing "our allies" a favor by supporting them in a war they either don't want to fight or are incapable of fighting.
OBAMA motivated Iraqi troops drop weapons and flee as ISIS takes Ramadi
My guess is the leadership is corrupt and useless. In their heyday, when Muslim armies seemed unstoppable, Arab leaders used to lead from the front - and died in battle pretty frequently. Now, Iraqi combat leaders are issuing orders far from the front, orders that typically involve fighting to the last man. ISIS appears to be cut from the same cloth as ancient Arab armies - its combat leaders are seldom far from battle fronts and routinely die in battle, whereas Iraqi leaders are safely ensconced in Baghdad.

Here!
Since you are not clear on who it is that either doesn't want or is incapable of winning, let me say this.
Any country that court martials it's best (US Marine) for peeing on the dead body of an enemy. does not want to win and will do what ever it has to to undermine the will of the troops to win.
The US does not want to win, that is obvious, what is not obvious is why.
My guess to the why is this: the O6s and above don't want to upset their pension by upsetting the muslim traitorous sodomite scum in the oval office.
I was referring to the Iraqis who run and leave behind their equipment at the sight of a smaller ISIS force approaching them. They will never stand on their own.
I agree completely with you on your analysis of our top military not wanting to upset Bizarro.
I’m going to weigh in here and say that I don’t think ALL 0-6’s and above are so inclined to put their own personal behind FIRST. But, that said, too many are and I have said this a long time before today, and several times.
