Iraqi militia's that is given that all its members are local Iraqis, do answers to Iraqi chain of command under the PMU. Turkey trained a force where they appointed Atheel al Nujaifi as their leader. Former governor of Nineveh, he worked against Iraq for years. Back in early 2015 the US...
Iraq has military cooperation with Jordan, Egypt and Pakistan (Sunnis right?).. Seems like you're very unaware of the political situation.
Turkey is not friendly to Iraq they're hostile to the point where they trained a force that does not respond to Iraq's chain of command, basically they want...
Iran offered Iraq use of its ground troops yet Iraq denied. Iraq lacks equipment not manpower. The ISF is conducting operations with very little tanks and artillery which is the reason why operations are taking a while.
This campaign of terror isn't limited to Iraq, it exists in every state with a Muslim majority when the slightest opportunity for rebellion is made available. Whenever a Muslim state experiences a regime transition/chaos/war (such as Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Yemen, Iraq, Algeria in the 90's...
If Sunnis converted to the more superior sect of Shiism there would be less terror in the world, Sunnism is infected with cancer, they should treat the virus or kill/leave the sect.
This guy one day puts his trust in Sisis Egypt, the next day in MB led Turkey. Paranoid about the Majoos. You seek protectors, in the 80's you flooded Iraq with money to defend you from Iran, then you went to daddy America, then flooded Egypt with billions, now you're looking at Turkey.
LOL

There's competent units, armies are too large to designate as competent or incompetent. In many ME nations they have corruption riddled command/the problem of politicization of certain command structures etc. (the list of possible problems is endless).
Many middle eastern armies have competent...

Iraq suicide bomb: Blast kills 70 Shia pilgrims.
The victims seem to be mostly foreign pilgrims (Iranians & Bahrainis)
Wahabi shits at work again. Meanwhile Saudi number plates on IS vechiles keep showing up, I wouldn't be surprised if the...
The IS pests are using the tactic of deploying snipers to shoot civillians (no matter if they're kids or adults) fleeing or moving to get food, this way they keep them as human shields. Not a surprise however given that this group targets Baghdad's civillians on a weekly basis.
BAGHDAD — Iraq's parliament plans to vote Nov. 26 on a proposal to integrate the militias that operate under the Popular Mobilization Units (PMU). The proposal follows a July 27 order by Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to make the PMU militias a united governmental force under his direct...
