Here we go - Iraq war starting up again.

Hard to keep track of the goodies and baddies-
I think ?????
On one side it's the Al queda inspired ISIS Sunni jihadists
On the other side its the Iraq government + Iranian special forces +possible USA airstikes .
Is that right ? America and Iran fighting on the same side ...

Iran has sent special forces and a unit of elite troops to Iraq to bolster efforts to halt the advance

Never learn Tel?

They do this shit on purpose mate.

Saddam was a liberal (compared to fundamentalists)

Bush and Co killed him to create instability and the need to be constantly involved and be able to steal the whole bag.

Yeah blue, there is a causal chain from Iraqi WMD to ISIS, so why don't you spare us the crocodile tears? Mission accomplished.

But the Iraqi army is "Trained" and they have fancy Humvees ..



Was always going to happen.. lol

Thank you Tony and George

All part of the strategic geopolitical plan and chain of events. Well done by the Western imperialists powers.

Hi Jeff.

Americans Own3D again !!!

The right honourable vivacious super deliciousness Sir Tone is being shuffled through the first class lounge at Emirates as we speak , to go and have another look for any weapons of masturbation , before he makes any hasty decisions .

If Tony's still a peace envoy for the ME, he'll get it sorted. Parachute the man in!

And like Tony Blair before him, William Hague has said Britain "will support the United States in anything that they decide to do", but without sending in troops - yet.

More refugees trying to make their way into England.
Thanks Tony Blair and all those who voted for you.

US wondering if it should invade Iraq

The daily mash's take on it.

US wondering if it should invade Iraq



Iraqi Rashid Al-Ghazali said: “Oh please America, come and rescue us from our terrible plight.


“And don’t bother planning what to do after you’ve occupied us. That would be a waste of precious time.”


Former Prime Minister Tony Blair said: “Because of the visionary leadership of myself and President George W Bush, neither America nor the UK have any problems of their own anymore.


“This is the perfect moment to spread our innovative recipe for success across the Middle East.

An old school friend of mine is in Iraq at the moment. The speed with which the ISIS force is tearing through Iraq is impressive, well unless you are sitting in Baghdad awaiting their arrival.

Just another reminder of one lesson in life we all need to learn. Any time you hear the US discussing another country in the world, think of Iraq, and tell them to STFU.

Obama and Cameron the new Bush and Blair, nah, fukkin pussy's.

The problem in Iraq, as it was put to me, is that the locals hate the Christian invaders more than the Muslim invaders.

Wanna bet? They will want to now even more than before. The US are now going to watch Iran all over Iraq, helping the people and reaping the rewards. This will be untenable to the US.

What you mean is Iraq wanted to handle things themselves, but the US didn't like the idea so installed AlCIAda to cause more destabilization, knowing Iraq would have no alternative but to look to the US....

Woods for the trees!

Oh yeah, and just to add while this and more is happening, Obama is allowing more voting fodder into the borders. As someone finely put "Intercourse in Mexico = US citizenship!"
