IRAN PLAYING US FOR A SUCKER IN IRAQ, U.S. PROJECT THERE WILL BE DESTROYED…….

All those U.S. who died in Iraq will be for nought, thanks in large part to Obama (and Bush who failed to take note of Daniel Pipes’ analysis for withdrawing after initial victory and place another Baathist in power, then leave).

Foreign Militia Fighter Says Iran Role Will “Destroy The American Project In Iraq”

Iranian support for Shiiite militias taking on ISIS will be the downfall of American influence in Iraq, one non-Iraqi fighter says.BuzzFeed News’ Mike Giglio reports from Iraq.

BAGHDAD — The man embedded with the battalion of Iraqi fighters was not Iraqi. His accent placed him someplace else. He spoke privately about his nationality — from another country in the region — and the organization that sent him to Iraq. But he agreed to talk on the condition that this information be withheld because he wasn’t authorized to speak to the press: “Call me a non-Iraqi fighter with the popular mobilization in Iraq.”

Sitting down for an interview near a front with ISIS on a recent afternoon, he predicted that ISIS will be defeated in Iraq. And when it is, he said, the ultimate winner from the conflict will be Iran. “The American project in Iraq is headed toward defeat,” he said.

The man was working with one of the Shiite militia groups that have risen up to fight ISIS under the banner of “popular mobilization” forces. Middle-aged, he appeared less a fighter than an adviser, keeping to the background and conversing with commanders. The battalion was busy securing some recent gains. “The U.S. said the fight against ISIS will take years to win, but the popular mobilization is making it happen quick,” he said.

The role of the militia in the war on ISIS has expanded in recent months. They have two main sources of foreign support: Iran and its key ally in Lebanon, Hezbollah. Officials from both have acknowledged their involvement. Iran has provided training and weapons, while both Iran and Hezbollah have sent military advisers to the front.

Some U.S. officials have expressed alarm over the increasing influence of militia groups backed by two entrenched rivals. At the start of the recent offensive against ISIS in Tikrit — the largest to date — the militia accounted for some 20,000 troops, according to Gen. Martin Dempsey, the U.S. chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The fading Iraqi military — meant to be a legacy of the U.S. occupation — numbered just 3,000.

  1. Islam is a blueprint for a dysfunctional society. American involvement in any Muslim society is doomed for long term failure. You could say the same for any foreign power involvement in Muslim lands. Islam slowly will create enough jihadis to expel any invader. From countless suicide bombers to head on frontal attacks, Islam will sooner or later eliminate all foreign invaders.

    Islamic theology is the problem. It incites literally millions of unseen jihadis. An unconventional army that hides among the “innocent” population. An army as deadly as any on earth.

    The world deals with Islamic theology or expect the spread of Islam to continue.
