new york kevin Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Did the Iraqi Armed Forces have, or will they have now a standing order to shoot deserters on site as they leave? Irregardless of their individual religious convictions. Not to be confused with a tactical retreat. Such a standing order may well give them a spine they never had, and to never surrender to the enemy, let alone walk away from weaponry that could be used against you later on. Just asking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tankdude Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Hard to do that when the senior officer leadership is the first ones to disappear. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dog53 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 They will always need help keeping their country safe. They are a people that does not understand patriotism. They will die for allah but not for their own country. To them that as of yet does not compute. They have never had a history of a free country. So they do not recognize the sacrifices thats needed to keep it free. They are Dumba$$`s with time they will learn though 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new york kevin Posted September 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks everyone for your comments. I wish The Joint Chief's could see them as they need to know that one more time maybe. Just one more time, and they need to make it work and last this round.
