Iraq. Is it better now?? (AKA ISIS/ISIL/IS/name-of-the-week-here) (14 Viewers)

Fewer things are more dangerous than a trained military left out to take unemployment.

Yep, they seem to have quite a few former officers and soldiers from Saddam's army.

Disbanding the Iraqi army in 2003 was the worst mistake of the whole episode, after invading of course.

isn't ISIS like 30,000 people and a good amount of them in Syria? How is that small a force launching offensives (and winning) against a country as large as Iraq?

Iraq's army is garbage and ISIS are fearless fighters.

They've created a pretty potent force for a bunch of desert nutcases. Their leader, the so-called caliph, seems pretty capable.

i dont buy that, i think iraqi army is in control of the US and were ordered to pull out.

Of course they are, they oppose US global dominance like Russia and China do.

Agreed.

They were never a threat on USA. They have always been used by USA to scare Arab countries. That is Iran simply

Oh and...

Craster and Jaime Lannister

They are not a threat to american security but they refuse to adhere to the new world order and that's why the USA try to hamper them whenever they can, like with Russia.

iran is self sufficient, and doesnt have an imf sponsored central bank, it is definitely not controlled by the US, saying otherwise is pure delusion.

Russia is a worldwide power. Iran can not be compared with it IMO.

It was the same thing with Syria, they have nationalized sectors and don't have an imf sponsored central bank.

He's the worst thing about that movie for sure, he's terrible.

The thing I liked most about it was the music they chose, they used some 12th century troubadour songs, very cool.
