Empty chest beating. Iraqi shi'ah arabs are good at making empty threats and. But they're not good at delivering them.They know they can't attack Kurds, meaningful way. Because that would be strategically dumb as F**k at this point and a massive waste of resources, and would only benefit ISIS. For every 1-2 ISIS member they kill, they make 200 military music videos.

They want Iraq to be together. They're Iraqi unitary nationalists. They consider SK a part of the state of Iraq. Edited by lashgare, Jan 16 15, 3:30.

SK was never part of iraq it was gifted to iraq without asking the permission of KRG people thus this has to be undone via a referendum of course these morons dont know what that it they only know war nothing else. So when we are done with ISIS they can try their lucks. thou im sure beating these guys is as easy as falling of a log. |

There is a difference between ethnic homelands and states. Before 1921 , it was a province controlled by British interim administration. And before that it belonged to the ottoman administrative province of Mosul Vilayet. Doesn't mean that it isn't a part of the Kurdish homeland however. |

Did Iraq exist before 1921? That was my point. Prior to the Treaty of Sevres Iraq didn't exist as a independant nation-state, Kurdistan was simply brushed aside as a region.

Leshgere no mate, Wilayat Mosul was NOT part of Iraq at all and the Ottoman empire included all of the empire Wilayat Mosul or SK was just a region in the empire and iraq minus SK was another region in the empire. |

Na im arguing about what lashgere said that SK was part of iraq prior to 1921 which isnt true, there was no iraq, prior to 1921 with its current fake borders, so saying SK was part of iraq during the Ottoman empire is a wrong statement coming from a Kurd that makes it even worst. according to your point we could also say SK was part of turkey and turkey was part of iraq and etc... well no it doesnt work like that, SK and iraq were part of the ottoman empire that is true so was syria lebanon and the rest of ME too... so we could also say lebanon was part of SK prior to 1921... |

Cant wait for isis thugs to chase them out again Iraqi Army Finishes First Stage of Training US training will take six months in total Hewlêr The United States Embassy in Baghdad says that the first two weeks of training for the Iraqi army at the Taji military base have been completed, as they get ready to take on Islamic State (IS) militants throughout Iraq. On Friday, the embassy announced that now the first stage of training has finished, US-led coalition military trainers will continue to prepare the soldiers in different locations. The training focuses on the mechanisms or war, and military leadership. The training, announced by the US embassy at the start of the year, is also looking at the effective use of weapons and military equipment that will provided to the Iraqi army at the end of the six week project. The soldiers will face a well-armed Islamic State, that sealed a huge cache of weapons after the Iraqi army fled positions in Mosul in June last year. Last week the US Defense Department spokesman Col. Steve Warren told reporters that approximately 170 U.S. soldiers from the Army’s 1st Infantry Division are training four Iraqi army battalions near Taji. The effort began Dec. 27 and is expected to last six weeks. The U.S. plans to conduct training at two other sites — in Hewlêr and Besmaya — but it will be weeks before those are up and running, according to Warren. There are approximately 2,140 American troops in Iraq, 800 of which are engaged in providing security and force protection, and the remainder are training, advising and assisting the Iraqi army and peshmerga forces and president Obama has authorized the deployment of an additional 1,000. http://basnews.com/en/news/2015/01/17/iraqi-army-finishes-first-stage-of-training/ |

Militia leader: Diyala under control, preparing for Tikrit and Kirkuk ![]() KIRKUK, Kurdistan Region—The leader of the Shiite Bader Brigade said Sunday that his forces were in full control of Diyala and were preparing to drive the Islamic State (ISIS) out of the next two Sunni provinces. “Today we announce the liberation of Diyala,” said Hadi al-Amri, head of the Badr Brigade in a press conference. “Our next appointment will be in Tikrit and in the same way we will liberate Kirkuk.” Amri said that his forces were now clearing towns and villages from explosives that ISIS has left behind to facilitate the return of their residents. Amri urged his fighters not to touch people’s homes and properties, adding, “Ayatollah Sistani has sent a message asking us to protect people’s homes and belongings because this is a moral and religious responsibility,” Local residents in the towns of Jalawla and Saadiya—liberated in November—have complained that Shiite militiamen had plundered their homes and shops after the fighting was over. The Badr Brigade is Iraq’s largest and most powerful Shiite militia that has operated outside government control since Saddam Hussein’s ouster in 2003 and involved in Iraq’s bloody sectarian war in 2005-2008. Amri’s statement about preparing to liberate Kirkuk will most likely be met by Kurdish opposition who have their Peshmerga troops in the province with a defense belt that stretches hundreds of kilometers.
