The United States this week began transferring to Iraq and Gulf bases elite units of the US 82nd Airborne Division. debkafile's military sources report that the first batch of 500 officers and men will be deployed in Baghdad and the Kurdish republic's capital of Irbil, followed by another 500 in July and 250 in December. Altogether, by the end of 2015, the US will have posted another 1,250 officers and men to augment the American force already present at a base ner Habbaniya in the western Iraqi Anbar province. This force, roughly the same size as the incoming contingents, came from the US 3rd Division's Combat Team which set up the base six months ago to train Iraqi troops to fight the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant - ISIS.
By the end of the year, therefore, the number of US troops on the ground in Iraq will rise to several thousand.

It’s from Debka, so it MUST be true!...........................
Because the ruling elites have their collective head up their a$$?
Maybe Barry wants them out of the US so they can’t interfere with his future attempt at martial law?
Because it’s Bush’s Fault and you’re RAAAACist, that’s why!
Let us Pray this is not the start of ‘nam 2.0.
—...first batch of 500 officers and men will be deployed...—
Are the 500 officers something other than men? Women, girls, boys, transsexuals maybe? Guess they know something I don’t...
Actually Debka tends to have more truth credibility that the logic credibility of some posters here!
About to open up a can of whoop-ass on ISIS, that’s why. Let’s Roll!
To drop in with a few days to kill?
Transgendered paratroopers?
If they are, why is it in a “headline?”
Judicious grains of salt applied....
KYPD
Vietnam is the only model democrats understand.
Start small, mission creep to huge, micromanage everything from the office of the president, grind on for decades, fight to lose, blame republicans, abandon allies, and leave.
The IiC(idiot in Chief) is gonna send in just enough troops to get them kiled.
Question..(too late) Is it easier to never start smoking or quit after you’ve smoked for a while.
Equate that to losing territory and cities in Iraq.
Taking back the cities from ISIS will be far harder and costly than keeping them out in the first place.
Zer0 is going to leave Iraq in worse condition than it ever was. A fundamentalist Islamic terrorist state.
All that money, equipment and most of all lives for naught.
Because with a chute, a strong wind will keep their boots off the ground.
Nam 2.0 began the day Bush allowed Democrats decision making authority over the war.
Help train the Iranian Army,I mean...............
No, they are to salvage/create a fake legacy for him (so the next president will be the one considered as “losing Iraq”).
I pity anyone who served under the Kenyan Pirate; he makes a mockery of their sacrifices.
