Uh oh...Iraq

[fan_since79]

I love how we're going to send in special forces now to provide training for the Iraqi army.

 

I thought we were doing that during the ten years that we were there. They didn't learn ANYTHING? This is absurd.

 

[fan_since79]

It would be nice if for once the US didn't get such a hard on because of an isolated conflict in some part of the world and wanted to start a war over it.

 

The 1790's were the days.

 

George Washington had it right. Beware of foreign entanglements.

Ask the guy you voted for why we went over there. Your vote did this. You're terrible.

[Lhalo]

Hahaha! What a mess! Can anyone even keep track of what is going on over there?

Not to fear! Kerry has arrived in Baghdad and promises "intense and sustained support", as ISIS has completed their takeover of the western half of the country.

You missed an important caveat. He only promised that IF the Iraq Govt puts together an army to fight ISIS.

I have about as much chance of doing that as the Iraqi government. Total corruption and incompetence.

 

Let's explore for domestic oil and get out of the Middle East once and for all!

Sisi told Kerry and his boss to suck it.  Then concluded the meeting by saying, "Oh!  And be sure to keep those checks for $1.5 billion dollars comin' our way."

 

What a goat rodeo.

The Iraqi military make the French look like William Wallace.

Dude.

200 more troops headed to Iraq. That brings the total to 800.

 

Here we go again...

Obama's got to live up to his Nobel Peace Prize by sending in troops droning the shit out of people.

 

On a side note, Iraq has had it with the US and is now buying jets from Russia.

Well, ISIS has a five year plan at least. A few things do become abundantly clear thanks to this map though.

1. ISIS sucks at cartography. That's a weak ass map.

2. ISIS has an extremely selective view of the history of the Ottoman Empire.

3. ISIS is terrible at creating realistically achievable five year plans. Something tells me the Balkans, Spain, and India aren't cool with this plan.

ISIS weapons windfall may alter balance in Iraq, Syria conflicts

Militant coalition's goal: A Syria under Islamic law

It's like Hitler is taking over, and the world is more interested in the World Cup.

I'm sure st1ckboy trying to murder you had a big effect on you but I really don't understand what that has to do with Iraq.

"stay out of international entanglements"

our government forgot that nugget of advice long ago. We've done more to destabilize the planet in the past 40 years, than maybe any other nation in history

[Jason]

we !@#$ed the middle east and gave birth to demon 

They were f'ed up long before we ever got involved over there.
