Rearming Iraq. The ME's biggest arms proliferation.

rearm them for them just to abandon their weapons??

why not just train a few thousand Iraqo special forces and give them the best equipment and intelligence to go with it.


you arm the common iraqi soldier with low morale he's just going to flee no matter how good his equipment is, just giving ISIS more weapons and confidence.


Iraq needs air power more than anything.

Most of the arms are sent to the regular Iraqi troops who suck. Fortunately, Sadr's hardcore Mahdi Army gets some of those goodies and make good use of them.

Air power is not necessary. Frontline distance is only a few miles. They need big bad artillery. 155 mm or more.

Iraq has recently received Mi-28N attack helicopters from Russia.
