This was expected. The kenyan refused to provide more support to Iraq a while back. Supposedly to focus on protecting oil facilities instead of cities.

Other than what you have stated, I don’t give a crap anymore. We spent billions and billions of dollars “training” the Iraqi military as well as giving them billion and billions of dollars worth of our equipment not to mention American blood by the 55 gallon barrel. As a result my opinion is:

The Iraqis can’t fight, or else they are chickensh*ts. They lose almost every engagement against the ISIS. Looks like the bad guys are the only ones that will fight. So as far as I am concerned, Iraq can go to hell.

What really ticks me off is that we had it all won and the dominos were starting to fall in the right direction, with the attempt in Iran at the “green revolution”. Obama got in office and squashed that, then began to take our combat troops out and everything went the other way.

I hope people really understand that Obama and the Democrat’s only goal for Iraq and Afghanistan was TOTAL FAILURE.

The left hated Bush so much (for daring to win in 2000), they have done everything possible to destroy all the gains we made in those countries.

Why anybody would vote for a DemocRAT is just beyond me.

It really saddens me that the DemocRAT’s conduct has been so disrespectful of our military. I’ve had many military members of my family successfully serve our country.
