I think we are once again being misled. POTUS is requesting 2 billion to send 1000 more "advisors" to Iraq. 2 billion???? Let's see, at 250 a planeload, that is 4 transport aircraft. How much fuel do they need to get to Iraq? We already have enough hardware in theater (trucks, MRAPS) to transport and house. They have, however dropped a hint: they mentioned Anbar province. Anbar is Sunni. The Sunni have been expunged from the Iraqi Defence forces. Therefore this can only mean that the 2 billion will be going to arm and train the Sunni tribes in Anbar. Just watch. Mission creep is ON!

pretty soon the Iraq war will be Obama's fault...

No, because there will only be a civil war there, in which Barry Obama will not be involved. What exactly to you think will happen when the Anbar Sunni tribes are armed with heavy weapons? The Shia government in Baghdad augmented by Shia troops and weapons from Iran and the Shia Militias and Shia Regulars of the IDF, are confronted by Armed Sunni tribes, who hate them, and they all work together to fight ISIL? Ha, Ha, Ha! Barry will high tail it out of there in a flash!. No, NOTHING is EVER Barry's fault, because he is always hiding behind somebody else, and does nothing. Oh, he wrecked the American Healthcare system, and impoverished the coal miners, and stopped American energy exploitation, and crippled American business, but NEVER can he be blamed for any military action, Never! That would require courage.

right...google courage and GW comes up.

Courage is the ability and willingness to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation. Who is GW? And what does one have to do with the other? Politics is not a comparative study. It is a march of events driven by decisions: decisions made by humans in unique circumstances. The justification of each is independent of all others. We see now an indecisive man who lacks the wisdom to act to fulfill the demands of the situations into which his prior indecision has propelled him. He finds himself further and further behind the events and less and less able to affect them. At least 200 million of the 300 million in this country see this and are increasingly worried and angry about it. These are facts.

Most likely that 2 billion is going to salaries and arms for ISIL.

You can't have a war without an enemy. If you don't have one, you must create one.

Gw?

Courage?

Does this face show courage? Did his actions show courage?

I'm not sure who it was who was interviewed, but he was a two-time advisor in Vietnam. He said that "advisor" necessarily means being alongside the "advisees" in combat. No, they are supposed to be advisors, but they will be armed and they will be in combat.
