Iraqi security forces lost 2,300 Humvee armored vehicles when Islamic State overran the northern city of Mosul in June 2014, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said on Sunday in an interview with Iraqiya state television. Coupled with previous losses of American weapons, the conclusion is simple: The United States is effectively supplying Islamic State with tools of war the militant group cannot otherwise hope to acquire from its patrons.
In addition to the Humvees, Iraqi forces previously abandoned significant types and numbers of heavy weapons to Islamic State. For example, losses to Islamic State include at least 40 M1A1 main battle tanks, as well as small arms and ammunition, including 74,000 machine guns, and as many as 52 M198 howitzer mobile gun systems. “We lost a lot of weapons,” Abadi admitted. – Reuters, June 2, 2015
Iraqi Prime Minister Abadi may be the most honest politician on the planet, at least judging by this one statement. His troops most certainly did “lose a lot of weapons.”
Let’s add this up. Iraqi forces abandoned and/or lost some 2,300 armored Humvees, 40 M1A1 battle tanks, 74,000 machine guns and 52 howitzers. This is not simply “a lot of weapons.” It is more weaponry – and better weaponry – than the entire army has in many nations, and doesn’t include what the Islamic State acquired in its many subsequent victories.
Obama is arming ISIS and our military is following his illegal orders. The European news Agencies as well as some middle east nations have photos and Video of American planes dropping arms, food and medicine into ISIS areas and ISIS Terrorists picking up the materials. This is treason and our two main branches of government discounting the judiciary, are well aware of this, and till this day they have not called for the impeachment of this AlIEN ANIMAL ENTITY in the white house. he must be charged with high crimes and hanged, no other form of justice should be served on him, but hanging or standing before a firing squad as well as our generals and commanders who followed his heinous and barbaric orders. This AlIEN ANIMAL ENTITY in the white house is the son of the devil and if you are not aware of this by now, then I am really sorry for you.
All those involved in the treason should be tried, not just obama. It should go right down to lowest in the chain.
Absolutely, right down to the clerks and the lowly infantrymen.
