What the heck is going on here and over there? We were surprised by Iranians leading Iraqi troops to try to retake Tikrit?
So, we were never told about it or asked to join forces, yet we supplied the weapons.
That's the stupidest thing I've heard since Obabbles remarks this afternoon.The US press and government are fully aware of Iran's fight against the US armed ISIS - but you can't make an enemy (that has never attacked you) look good in front of the people you're trying to tell how evil it is.
In fact, Iran has done more to damage ISIS than America has ever done, and they haven't sent weapons to, or trained ISIS - something America can't claim.
Why? Just saying something is stupid without a detailed explanation is, well, "stupid".That's the stupidest thing I've heard since Obabbles remarks this afternoon.The US press and government are fully aware of Iran's fight against the US armed ISIS - but you can't make an enemy (that has never attacked you) look good in front of the people you're trying to tell how evil it is.

Republicans chased Sunni's out of Iraq. Now they have come back. That is pretty much the bottom line.Well, it seems the new defense secretary Carter is concerned with the Iranians fighting with them-
Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Tuesday he is "very concerned" about reports that Iran and Shiite militias are taking over the fight against Islamic State militants in Iraq and potentially fueling sectarian strife in that nation.
Carter, testifying on Capitol Hill for the first time since he started his job in early February, responded to questions about reports that the U.S. military is sitting on the sidelines as the Iraqis launch a major operation in Tikrit, an important Sunni Arab city north of Baghdad that is controlled by the group known as the Islamic State or ISIL.
Instead, Iran is providing open military support to the Iraqi army. Reports suggest Iranian military officers, Iranian-backed Shiite militias and Iranian artillery units are operating on the ground alongside Iraqi regular army forces.
"Are you concerned that Iran has basically taken over the fight?" Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., asked during a hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
"I am looking at it with great concern," Carter said.
"Our approach to combating ISIL in Iraq is to work with the Iraqi security forces and a multisectarian government that takes a multisectarian approach to defeating ISIL," he said. "Sectarianism is what brought us to the point where we are, and so I do look at it with concern. We are watching it very closely."

Some things are stupid on their face...like Obama's.Why?

How come Rdean always has all the answers?
At this point with your moron Obabble, I reckon you are anxious to highlight any movement in Iraq...including the Revolutionary Guard calling the shots where brave US soldiers fought and died to free iraq from a despot.How come Rdean always has all the answers?
Because he is not an ignorant Republican voter.
I am quite pleased with the Iraqis wanting to get this started in Tikrit against Daesh on their own. What is wrong with us supplying weapons and bombing some Daesh cowards when the try escaping the death that is coming to them.
