VP Biden to give major speech on Iraq's future

Recommended Posts

The fact that carello actually used the phrase "the success of Obamacare" proves that carello is unlikely to ever see the light. That is a 2 step process, pulling your head out of whatever (@**)hole it is in, and then wiping your eyes clean to see properly. My folks are one of the many people I know who lost their Great insurance that was meeting their needs and that they could afford (even with my mom undergoing chemo/radiation for cancer), and had to look for something else that doesn't cover as much and costs 40% more. carello, you can keep your 'success' for yourself. If you can't see where the teleprompter is taking the US, that is your own fault for willingly keeping your eyes and ears closed. Biden is impeachment insurance because Biden has no clue, and despite what the mainstream media would have you believe, is the utter idiot that the msm wanted you to believe was Sarah Palin. The only reason you can find more gaffe quotes by Palin is because the msm wants you to believe she is really dumb, when Biden has made as many, if not more gaffes since Palin ran for VP, not to mention the many other gaffes he made before she came to national awareness. I will pray for carello anyway, just as I pray for America to be able to escape from obama's destruction-from-within policies.


The word sophomoric takes on a new meaning.

yes, obama's sophomoric attempts to lead from behind are pretty sad.

Also, if Biden was such a great choice for VP, then he should be a shoe in for the 2016 Democratic Nomination for President.  But you watch what his numbers are if and when he announces he's going to run for President.  I bet he doesn't get over 20% in the polls.

 

.

I think 20% is being overly optimistic Markinsa.  Let's remove the zero and call it 2%.  :lol:

Biden said that at that time the world has seen the Iraqi army "falling apart" and resources of the Iraqi government seized the brutal acts committed in the territory controlled by the organization of the Islamic state.

He added, using the old name for the shortcut organization that fate worse scenarios, a disintegration of Iraq still exist, but in fact "momentum Daash in Iraq stopped and in many places has receded."

Biden said "the twist of fate that Daash actually helped Iraq to form a government. Daash itself, which was designed to dismember Iraq and the establishment of succession is the one who united the Iraqis really."

Biden praised Iraqi leaders from the Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish communities on their agreement to form a government that includes all categories and agree on a plan for the sharing of oil revenues and the mobilization of thousands of Sunni fighters to fight al-Islamic state.

He said that the Iraqi government forces have made significant gains on the battlefield with the support of air strikes the international coalition led by the United States in 1300, including an air strike carried out by the US military alone.

Biden noted that the organization of the Islamic State lost large areas dominated at one time, including the Mosul Dam and Mount Sinjar, and the city of Tikrit.

Biden urged Iraqi leaders to continue the consensus in the face of complex sectarian divisions and not necessarily lose their political sense, which gathered together yet.

However, Biden said, "a long battle ahead of us. I do not want to paint a picture very optimistic in this respect, but the strength of the aura that surrounds the organization weakened."

Biden: A decision on retaking Mosul from ISIS is coming soon

  • APR. 10, 2015, 10:32 AM
joe-biden-37.jpgAPJoe Biden speaking at an event on September 16, 2014.
 
  Vice President Joe Biden warned Thursday of a "long fight ahead" in Iraq while sidestepping questions over where the next offensive against ISIS should be directed following the retaking of Tikrit.
 

Biden suggested that decisions on whether to focus on freeing the northern city of Mosul or to press on ISIS strongholds to the south and west in Anbar province along the Euphrates River might come next week when Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi visits Washington. Biden appeared to see merit in both approaches.

 

Biden noted during his speech at the National Defense University that Abadi had met earlier this week in Irbil, the capital of the Kurdish region, with Kurdish leader Massoud Barzani to discuss the general outlines of plans drawn up by Gen. Lloyd Austin, head of the US Central Command, for the liberation of Mosul.

Biden said Abadi discussed "cooperation with the Pesh (Kurdish Peshmerga forces) in a plan coordinated with Gen. Austin in part to help liberate Mosul," Iraq’s second largest city, from the grip of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

 

Biden also said that Abadi on Wednesday met with Sunni tribal leaders in Anbar to deliver arms "in preparation for the liberation of Anbar as part of his commitment that he made with the Sunni leaders."

 

Biden, considered the Obama administration’s point man on Iraq, directed much of his speech to disputing the claims of critics who, he said, have argued that the campaign against ISIS "has stalled, has been stalemated," and that "Iran and its proxies are leading the fight."

 

"The jury’s still out, that’s the truth, but the momentum is in the right direction," Biden said, echoing previous statements by Austin and Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey.

 

Biden used the alternate acronym "ISIL" in referring to ISIS in stating that "we’re pounding ISIL from the sky" with coalition airstrikes. "ISIL has lost large areas they used to dominate. ISIL’s momentum in Iraq has been halted and in many places reversed."

 

Biden cited "reports of demoralization in ISIL ranks. ISIL’s aura of invincibility has been pierced."

 

However, Biden said that Iraq remains a "dangerous, dangerous, dangerous place" and success will depend upon healing the sectarian rifts between Sunni, Shia and Kurdish communities that had threatened to split the country apart.

Success will also depend upon continued U.S. support, Biden said. He said 6,000 Iraqi troops had been trained thus far by U.S. advisors, and 100 million rounds of ammunition, 62,000 small arms, more than 1,000 Hellfire missiles and 250 MRAPs (Mine Resistant-Ambush Protected) vehicles had been delivered to the Iraqi Security Forces.

 

An additional 50 MRAPs equipped with mine rollers to destroy improvised explosive devices were being supplied to the ISF this week, Biden said.

Much of the criticism of the US effort in Iraq has centered on the growing influence of Iran and the Iraqi Shiite militias in the campaign to oust ISIS, but Biden insisted that most Iraqis "don’t want to be owned by anybody" or to be "drawn into a regional conflict."

 

Biden said it was to be expected that Iraq would pursue "normal relations with Iran" as a neighboring state "but Iraq must be free to make its own sovereign choices."

 

An opposing assessment has been offered by retired Army Gen. David Petraeus, the former US commander in Iraq and Afghanistan. The White House acknowledged last month that it was consulting with Petraeus on the Mideast strategy.

 

In an interview with the Washington Post, Petraeus said that Iran remained "deeply hostile" to US interests in the region. "The current Iranian regime is not our ally in the Middle East. It is ultimately part of the problem, not the solution," Petraeus said.

 

He warned that Iranian-backed militias now operating in Iraq posed a greater long-term threat to the country's future stability than ISIS.

 

In a plea bargain with federal authorities last month, Petraeus admitted to sharing classified information with his former mistress and biographer. The plea bargain called for two months probation and a $40,000 fine.

 

The difficulties ahead for Iraq in achieving Sunni-Shia unity against ISIS were underlined by remarks last week by Hadi al-Ameri, head of Iraq's Shia militias known the Popular Mobilization Units (PMU).

 

At a news conference in Tikrit, which was retaken after heavy U.S. airstrikes, al-Ameri scorned the role of American airpower in the assaults that ousted ISIS from the city that was the hometown of the late dictator Saddam Hussein.

"If the Iraqi government wants to be thankful to the United States for the Tikrit operation, let them be, but we will not give credit to the US-led coalition and we don’t need them here," al-Ameri said.
