U.S. troops battle Iraqi police?

Post by RENO »

This is why we should get outta of that shithole asap! Can you imagine being the soldiers and trying to figure out who the hell is the bad guys? My buddy was in Iraq for almost 2 years and saw some horrific stuff including sh*t like this. Many times at checkpoints they found scumbags hiding in vehicles of people that were supposed to be on our side...

I agree we should pull out sometime soon, but I can't fathom the carnage that will occur as we're pulling out.

It's something for sure. We disenfranchised all the sunnis almost 5 years ago. Now that thay will take anyone crazy enough to put on the Blues, why would anyone be surprised? But what is our side? Sunnis? Shias? Kurds?
