When Will We Fight the New Shiite Army We're Building in Iraq?

When Will We Fight the New Shiite Army We're Building in Iraq?

We do the damnedest things. We sell weapons to Saddam in the 1980's and then we turn around and invade Iraq in 2003 because we think he might still have those weapons. We build up a tough Muslim army in Afghanistan in the 1980's to fight the Russians and we wind up invading Afghanistan in 2001 to fight that same Muslim force ourselves.

And now for the latest installment, we build up a Shiite army in Iraq only to fight them.....

You can fill in the blank. I'm not sure when we will go to war with the army we are so vigorously training right now in Iraq. But if history is any judge, what is certain is that we will fight them at some point.

Outside of historic generalities, there is ample reason to believe that there are specific reasons why we are likely to fight this Iraqi army. First, the so-called Iraqi army we're training right now is comprised mainly of Shiites and Kurds. They are fighting the Sunni insurgency, so the presence of Sunnis in the Iraqi army is limited and mostly for show.

last few paragraphs of the latest post.

Hmmmm ... probably around the same time we start begging the Chinese government to 'outsource' some of their (previous US) jobs to the States, in hopes of saving our bankrupt economy.

in Wars I reckon. And just wait until we have a home game. Look out MAN! Bring on them Shiites }(.
Seriously...even if we don't actually fight this Shiite Army we are building according to your post, American soldiers will die swomewhere in the desert from the use of these armaments we are providing them with. This happens over and over again when the USA! gets involved with stopping the spread of communism, terrorism, whatever the current "ism" is. I'm ready for a War on 'Ignorantism' here in USA! Yeah Baby!

Isn't it called blow back?
