ISIS captured upwards of 52 American made M198mm howitzer heavy artillery pieces, capable of hitting targets 14-20 miles away.

Yet our govt wants to take away our AR's which shoot .22 projectiles!

It is beyond reprehensible that we are going to have to blow up our own gear. Iraqis may go down as the most inept military in history.

To add insult to injury, the Islamists have also seized 1,500 up-armored Humvees which cost the American taxpayer $220,000 each.

We can thank Carter there aren't any neutron bombs in our arsenal.

” ....... the Islamists have also seized 1,500 up-armored Humvees “


How does that happen? How does that happen? Even our military leadership has to be questioned on this one.

I know Humvees can be used for purposes other than weapons. But why leave other weapons behind so that they can fall in the wrong hands? Destroy the damn things as we’re leaving.
