re: Iraqi Army?

From the best I can gather, the coalition is a few countries in the Middle East that have "blessed" our fight. We have not been told that they will supply forces. The only forces Obama spoke of was the moderate Syrian rebels and the Iraqis. This leaves a lot to be desired. We trained the Iraqis for almost ten years and they folded like a seven two off suit.
I wonder if we will be drawn into a boots on the ground fight.

Where the frick are the Saudis? I think this is very telling and these assholes need to be held accountable for this. You want your region to be secure? Put some fricking skin in the game.

The French supposedly will fly some sorties.

And some of those moderate rebels fight with the FSA who want to overthrow Assad which means some of the arms we give these guys will go to Isis. Bad strategy
