If they’re getting attacked, that doesn’t say much for the Iraqi force charged with protecting them.
Iraqi is a nonexistent element....there is Shia, Sunni, or Kurd...but no so-called Iraqi as in a actual citizen that believes in a single nation...
With that said, Arabs are worthless when it comes to combat and soldiering...they are the most incompetent and lazy culture I’ve ever come across...and any vet from OIF or OEF that was in a training role will agree with me 100%...
So - yes - if we are on the ground - we are going to have to fight...because those idiots won’t risk it...because as they say over there, “It’s not my problem.”
