TD -- " this sad mess will take months & months to sort through. "
6-16-2014 Intel Guru TD Calling real time events being covered by now, the world media, "smoke", "sideshow", etc. is a real insult to those who are living it and suffering from the breakdown of Iraq. IMHO, posters need to be more respectful to this human tragedy. It is "real" and it brings about severe uncertainty for the immediate future. We have to keep in mind the Sunni-Shiite discourse has it's roots back to the 17th century and will NOT (this time) just evaporate.
ISIS is still gaining and NOT being defeated or retreating. By stealing over $400 million dollars (in Mosul), capturing military hardware, etc. from the GOI, it has momentum, the might & funds to furnish it's cause.
The Kurds also have grabbed Tikrit and they are ready for an independent state. IT IS VERY POSSIBLE that a new state dividing the nation into 3 factions is the ultimate outcome after the fighting and sorting through is done. EVERYONE in Iraq is disgusted with the status quo and each faction says THEIR future does not include the other two. Whatever happens, this sad mess will take months & months to sort through.

Agreed .... I am still suspicious of the circumstances. Nothing I can prove or disprove, but well trained and well equipped soldiers apparently ordered to leave their posts and equipment behind ....
Personally I do not see ISIS holding their gains for very long. Am I sure? Is anything sure in that place except hatred and violence? We will see what we will see ...
