Iran now getting involved, great....
Iran Govt points out that the shia holy shrines in Iraq (Kerbala, Najaf, Samara Khazemain) are “red lines” for Iran.
This “offensive” is being financed by the Saudis. They are attempting to establish an Arabic speaking Sunni confederation that would include large parts of Syria and Iraq to oppose Iran. Post bin Laden al Queda is a Saudi financed international Sunni fighting force. The capture of Mosul is the high point of this campaign. Soon Iran will be forced to intervene to protect Shi’ite interests in Iraq.
