Iraqi gear in the hands of Peshmerga and Peshmerga forces! This is nothing compared to the amount of military hardware we've seized! |

Great! Peshmerga needs some more IFV/APCs for its 2nd mech division, which is low on IFV/APCs (thus have gotten the independent tank company and some trucks to take their place. Hope they have captured some IFV/APCs to change that) |

Guys you see the special forces guy in the pics I posted, the first few, I added him on facebook, he is in diyala right now! I asked what kind of weapons Peshmerga has, and he said; "Barez peshmarga hamo tshteke haeya la tayara yan jake kors emesh la snore karmeyanen aesta jalwlaman kontrol krd" I asked for pics, but he hasn't replied yet  I imagine he's pretty busy on the front lines. |

Ali Hassan al-Majid, the cousin of former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein, has been executed in Iraq for crimes against humanity, a government spokesman said. Al-Majid, nicknamed "Chemical Ali", received his fourth death sentence last week, for ordering the gassing of Kurds in the Iraqi village of Halabja. |

Does anybody think that this whole thing was planned? Do you think masoud barzani is given green light by us/europe to send troops and permanently station peshmerga in the areas outside Kurdistans administration? Also where is he? |

Thought of the same thing. He even said there will be huge changes in Iraq after the elections, maybe this is what he meant- (or part of what he meant. Maybe this is the end of Iraq as we know it. The end of the artificial borders). Not sure whether he did get the green light from Europe/US tho. Could also be as Xoybun said; Intelligence agencies infiltrated ISIS and knew this long ago. We do have the best Intelligence agency in Iraq and one of the best in the middle east. Would not surprise me if that was the case.

the guardian - How effective is Isis compared with the Iraqi army and Kurdish peshmerga? Iraqi armed forces After Iraq's armed forces were disbanded following the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003, the United States and its allies committed more than $25bn to training and building a new military. With more than 250,000 frontline troops (not counting paramilitary police units), on paper at least the Iraqi military should be effective. It is equipped with almost 400 tanks including US M1A1s and Russian T- series tanks including the T-72. It also has more than 2,500 armoured fighting vehicles and 278 aircraft, including drones, transport aircraft, amphibious aircraft and 129 helicopters. But despite its manpower and equipment – and the huge sums invested in it – the Iraqi military has suffered constant problems with combat readiness at battalion level while struggling to attract sufficient recruits to maintain effectiveness, particularly in key areas such as training. As the security environment in Iraq has steadily worsened, the government under the prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, has tended to concentrate elite units in the capital, while recent operations in the west on the Syrian border and around Falluja and Ramadi have suggested both serious political and operational shortcomings. The collapse of an estimated 30,000 forces in and around Mosul underlined a lack of morale and an apparently chaotic chain of command. Isis Estimates put the fighting strength of Isis in Syria and Iraq at around 7,000 but its numbers in Iraq appear to have been bolstered by other groups, including local Sunni militants and Ba'ath nationalists particularly in Tikrit. Despite claims that they have captured helicopters in Mosul, it seems unlikely they would be able to deploy them. Lightly armed with Toyota pickup technicals, RPGs and small arms, Isis has captured some armoured Humvees, although there are suggestions that some equipment has been sent back to Syria. While they have been able to operate easily in largely Sunni areas where they have some support from a population angry and alienated from the Shia-led government in Baghdad, the capital is a different proposition. One district alone, Sadr City, has a Shia population of some 1 million and since the sectarian war that ended in 2008, the sprawling suburbs have been divided along sectarian lines with checkpoints and barriers. Peshmerga Although some 35,000 Kurdish peshmerga are incorporated into the Iraqi security forces, other peshmerga remain outside with published estimates varying from 80,000 to three times that number. Two years ago a Kurdish official suggested the peshmerga numbered 190,000. Increasingly well equipped – including with 2,000 armoured vehicles and rocket artillery systems – they are regarded as motivated, well trained and experienced. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jun/12/how-battle-ready-isis-iraqi-army-peshmerga |

Who knows maybe this dijla was created for a day like this, if sunnis attack Pesh takes over and captured these gears to counter balance the forces... ssc guys thought their army was stronger bcos they had better gears, but i tell them, its not the gear that fights its the one operating it, and with a hand gun you can fight better than with your all your abandonded humvees and APCs. |
