The Pentagon has sent to Iraq 100 troops of the special forces "to combat ISIS"

29
The Tass news agency reports that military personnel from an American special unit arrived in Iraq. This is about 100 military special forces units, which, as stated in the Pentagon, "will continue to work on training the Iraqi army and local militia to fight the militants of the IG (DAISH)." As it is known, earlier it was reported that 50 military "instructors" were sent to Iraq, and from the official Baghdad there were no requests for such kind of assistance from the United States.


Meanwhile, the Pentagon argues that it was the Iraqi authorities who "asked" Washington about the "one hundred servicemen." TASS cites a statement by Colonel Steve Warren, the representative of the command of the so-called American Coalition in the Middle East:
The special forces arrived in Iraq in accordance with the request of the Iraqi government. They will conduct covert operations after consulting with the country's leadership. They will carry out the tasks of blocking the supply routes of the Islamic State (IS) grouping between Iraq and Syria. IG does not know where to wait for the strike.

Judging by the fact that just the other day aviation the American coalition dropped bombs on the positions of the Iraqi army, it will also remain a mystery to the Iraqi armed forces, for whom exactly are the US going to hit in the future, and who will become the object of military activity of the above-mentioned special forces of the US armed forces.

It should be recalled that in the north of Iraq, at least 1 thousand still remain the Turkish military, who also declare that they help Iraq to resist the ISIL militants. At the same time, the flows of oil stolen by the militants continue to flow across the Turkish border and enter the world market.

          This is exactly what the Iraqis can only ask for.

            The Americans are imposing and imposing their “bear” services on the Syrian and Iraqi governments, although they are not asking the United States for this. And the pilots of the American coalition are bombed by government troops and their objects, like elephants in a china shop. So that the flows of Syrian and Iraqi oil stolen by the DIASH fighters would continue to flow through the Turkish border and enter the world market - and they do not need anything else.
            It’s all about the oil colonial business — and nothing but the continuation of this bloody oil colonial business. If you want to keep your business in your interests - hidden, as if from the outside, take it under your control or even lead.
            It’s just that Europe and NATO countries are satisfied with the robbery of Syrian and Iraqi oil with the help of DIASH militants at DEMP prices.

            It has already been established that their legal and illegal profits from the purchase of ISIL oil through Turkish ports have: Israel, France, Greece, Italy, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Netherlands, Cyprus, USA.

        Once the Americans sent their "Delta" to Iran. "Delta" liquid justification ... pardon me in my pants. And today these new "fighters" will sit in shelter and command the stupid representatives of the European armies by radio. At best, raising the barrel above your head, without aiming, shoot in the intended direction of the enemy.

          I am not a fan of any "deltas" and other "forces", but it was not they who put it in their pants, but the helicopter pilots. Apparently, this is their disease (Geronimo's operation was also not without an accident).

      How can a puppet government completely subordinate to Washington ask for the United States to retreat?) It is the same if Germany after the Second World War would ask the USSR and the USA to leave its territory winked

      and from the official Baghdad no requests for such assistance from the United States came.

      I just can’t understand the United States occupied Iraq, sent out a hundred inspectors, and the occupied government also has the audacity to say that it did not invite the lights of the American shit democracy?

    "" in the north of Iraq there are still at least 1 Turkish military personnel, "" - American special forces will help the Iraqis get rid of the Turks. However, even Obama got it.

    What will their special forces be doing there? By the way, they have special forces with a division of labor - weapons expert, expert sniper, medical expert, communications expert, helicopter piloting expert, MBLA expert, etc. And the plan of a combat operation is discussed approximately as at a production planning meeting. The commander will listen to everyone and make a compromise decision based on consensus. That is, if someone crap, then there will be no attack. This is called "acting as a team." And such crap is sent to do something there. Yes, the Arabs will teach them everything there.

    The special forces arrived in Iraq in accordance with the request of the Iraqi government. They will conduct covert operations after consulting with the country's leadership. They will carry out the tasks of blocking the supply routes of the Islamic State (IS) grouping between Iraq and Syria. IG does not know where to wait for the strike.


    I'd like to believe in it ...

    the information needs to be double-checked ... with the Americans it’s usually like this — they’ll strike, and then it turns out that it’s against the Iraqi army. Today, special forces were sent for training, and a month later we find out what the DAIShevtsev was preparing ... by accident, purely by mistake :)

    The main thing is to indicate your presence and participation. Now ISIS is calm, the owner has not leaked them. This begs the situation in which our videoconferencing is simply obliged to make a mistake in the goal.
