seriously? THEY are shipping weapons of war to militant groups?

anyone heard anything about the US shipping some weapons to various militant groups around the world?

being hypocritical is just par for the course for these people

"The weapons will undoubtedly be rerouted to Ukraine. Ukraine can then sell them to the rebels in Yemen with 10% of the profits going to the “Big Guy.”

Not out of the realm of possibility. 🤔

Look at the area Kurds claim, and form a reasoned response.

They better shoot sparingly.

700,000 rounds of ammo / 9000 rifles = 77.77777777777778 rounds per rifle.

4 countries. There would be a lot of shooting going on. Lots of oil in Northern Iraq for them to claim. They fight and they’d be rich.

Do we gain from no fighting over there when there are religious/historical resentments? Let me come up with a new term: Let nature take it’s course.

It would be a horrifying, deadly mess. I doubt many of the nations involved could survive the birth of Kurdistan. While they are all old, there were other nations there in the past, and there will be new nations in the future, in that area.
