Next time, DON’T win the war, turn the place over to the enemy and then WALK AWAY.
It costs us men and $$$$$$$$$.
After all, you break it—you bought it, it’s YOURS.
Remember it, for next time.
.......AND trust me—THERE WILL BE A NEXT TIME. (Sooner than you think.)
(AND most likely in the same place, too.)
I thought this was going to be about Russia fighting in the Ukraine and Syria, and was wondering where they were going to open a new front.
Mosul is the big prize in the war against ISIS in Iraq. It’s the key, but from everything I have read I don’t believe our Generals have confidence that it can be taken this year, though Iraq wants to start the offensive this year. Rather than taking Mosul, why not go after a more obtainable objective. Defeat them in Fallujah and totally remove the threat of ISIS from in an around Baghdad. They aren’t launching these attacks on Baghdad from Mosul, they are from far closer like Fallujah. Mosul is close to ISIS’s center of power, it’s going to take a lot to remove them from there.
