The Iraqi guys are probably just there as a job to get paid - no heart in it. I imagine 1000 demented ISIS guys would be enough to chase out the 8000.

Maybe. They had American air support though.
Someone was calling the shots. Someone called the retreat.
Who?
I bet ISIS was allowed to take Ramadi. They either
1.) Have sympathizers in the Iraqi government,
or
2.) Have leverage.

In either case (yours or mine) it doesn’t matter.
The Iraqi army is then there just for show, and ISIS will call their bluff and Iraq will fold.
