A U.S. Army Iraq war vet plans to take a team of veterans back to the Middle East to fight the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
Sean Rowe, of Jacksonville, Florida, served on active duty in the Army for 8 years, which included two tours in Iraq. He said he can no longer sit by and do nothing.
This is something I feel compelled to do, Rowe said. Women and children are being slaughtered over there. They need our help. I know we can make a difference.
Rowe started Veterans Against ISIS to take the fight to the terrorists on their own turf.
Bye-bye Biden told us to *avoid questioning the motives of others* .... you did it now!:0
That would be a sight.
Then we know it’s a good thing. They could tell him, they are going to scout for a great site for his library.
I got dibs on the ears. Go medieval on those < expletive deleted >.
God Bless them, keep them SAFE oh God! Amen!
I really doubt that will happen.
Perhaps by doing this publically, it will flusb out domestic enemies. And I mean politicians, and their handlers and backers.
Yes there is a federal law against it. Ross Perot was going to do the same thing in the ‘70s. George H. W. Bush, then head of the CIA told him of the law. That’s why Perot hated Bush and entered the ‘92 presidential race to split the vote.
Probably. But I still wouldn’t put it past Obama. It would not surprise me.
Nah. Valerie will simply supply the necessary intel to our enemies (her comrade) in the hope of having them eliminated permanently
Probably true.... Obama’s government DID sit out Benghazi despite prior intel that could have saved those now-dead Americans.
Gutsy men. True Patriots. May He keep them safe!
Perhaps he will help fund this military endeavor.
Since the Muslims have some of our vehicles and weapons ....taking them back to the rightful owners would be OK with me.
Once they are on the ground, they plan to fold in with resistance fighters, who Rowe said will supply the weapons, food, and shelter they need.
Rowe needs to find a loggie who will disabuse him of following this plan.
Operators love to assume away logistics. It works in the movies, but not on the battlefield.
Hussein won’t sit still for this. He’ll end up sending in our troops to take them out.
I don’t know why you’d want to hook up with spooks these days. IT’s always been hard to tell which side they’re on, and it’s even worse today LOL
While the US may prohibit the use of mercenaries, there is little likelyhood of prosecution by the US. Of course, that would be the least of your worries in this messthe legal systems of the Middle East are rather unpredictable, to put it mildly.
Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) make the difference between who lives and who dies in Syria and Iraq. Without it they will not last long.
