Status of forces agreement should be in place prior to one boot touching Iraqi sand.
I hear all the fingers flipping in response to this thread.
President Obama pulled U.S. forces out of Iraq in 2011 because he couldn’t get Iraq’s parliament to offer U.S. soldiers immunity from Iraqi prosecution.That was the lie that the Obama admin put out there. In reality, they could have gotten this, but Maliki looked at the small number of troops Obama was going to leave behind, and decided the US was not serious.
And the Shia militias have said they would attack them.
But Barry's going to send these brave men into harms way on a thankless task with no protections.
God be with them.
Yep, completely ignore in the debate over sending troops to get involved.
But they may be there just for embassy protection.
We should not have troops anywhere, period! At the risk of sounding like and isolationist we need to let the world set in its own funk. We need to penalize companies that offshore and tighten up tariffs. Stop immigration legal and not.
Yes, I guess I am becoming a protectionist, to hell with everyone else.
The Pentagon should Cloward-Piven themselves right out of this with all sorts of MOA and MOU requests from the Administration.
If I was in the military I’d be yelling “Hell no! I won’t go!”
It’s almost funny to watch Hopenchange Jesus fumble in the dark.
If any U.S. troop is allowed to be taken, then you can bet it’s going to kill moral in all the services.
There will be steep decline in people wanting to even join the military too.
