Iraqi state television is reporting the country’s prime minister has ordered Shiite militias to be prepared to go into Anbar province, where the Islamic State group has forced some security forces into a retreat.
Anbar province is primarily Sunni and many worried sending Shiite militias into the region could spark greater outrage among those still there.
It will. Sending Shiite militias in is going to backfire massively. The area is rife with pissed off Sunnis looking for the first excuse to join ISIS.
