OUR TRAINED THUGS STRIKE
I've commented many times on this site that we may have created a monster with the Iraqi Army and Security forces. It looks like we have. The entire Arab culture has a history of military abuse of citizens and why should it stop now? This report is probably just under the corner of the rug. Every takeover has been with the military in the corner of the strong man before the usurpation of power. This is a U.S. trained and armed collection of thugs, incapable of real fighting, but capable of terror on their own people, make no mistake.
ParaPundit has an even more devastating view of the so-called Iraqi army, quoting a ton of our Army guys here. The case for complete breakdown of the Iraq army is made here. Keep in mind that ParaPundit is hardly a Left Wing hangout. I don't see a way to turn this around. The Shias are running out of patience. Just a question of time before they go after the Sunnis with a vengence and their ain't no vengence like Arab vengence, as we have all come to know.
