The ISIS is a front or cannon fodder for the old Iraqi Army. Most of their gains have been generals telling the soldiers to walk off.

There are a bunch of spies in the high command of Maliki’s army, so yes, the entire Army could collapse. I don’t think fresh recruits from Sadr City are going to hold Baghdad.
