PBS at its best.

Those people are tribal, right out of the 7th century. The world would be far better off without them.

Currently according to sources there are at least 25,000 Iranian Guard soldiers fighting along with Iraqi Troops outside of Tikrit now. the bigger concern will probably after ISIS is destroyed, Will Iran give up Iraq or try and take charge of that Country ?

My uneducated guess: Iraq will be a puppet government of Iran. Maybe Iran will move their nuke bomb labs to Iraq.

We have very thick dossiers on all the major players in ISIS. We fought them before in Al-Anbar eight years ago when they went by the name Al Qaeda in Iraq.

That's great to have files on them, if that leads to some kind of action.

We had most of the leadership in US Military Custody at one time or the other. The Military guys are former Republican Guard Officers.
