Not a problem anymore either. US military trained Iraqi forces to set up bridges for the Mosul offensive, they did so autonomously. Turkish border has to be reached, blowing up a bridge shouldn't be too big of an obstacle.

These are foreigners, Kurds from Iran who came to fight in Iraq.

US General on Peshmerga: "it's a PRETTY army,it didn't fight really well when push came to shove"

Militarily both Suleymaniyah and Arbil can be taken, nowhere as hard as the battles fought against IS in Mosul, Fallujah and Ramadi. Never dare is the wrong word, Peshmerga are a joke whom are fighting battle hardened troops that faced IS on a large scale. You would be right to say though that...

Hakim's party is close to Iran's leadership, therefor as expected. Not many Iranians fought in Iraq, only a few leaders who came voluntarily, the number is very small. Casualties and ongoing suffering is on both sides, both physically and mentally. It's not just baathists who will show a...

Objective is not to enter Arbil though, if they really wanted that they could use the air force and speed it up. It seems like Baghdad is trying to get the KRG to back down but they're not, therefor this keeps going on and the ISF keeps going further north. They're going to ChamChamal as well...

it's cause pesh keeps firing mortars on ISF, so ISF keeps advancing

That won't happen, and will only fuel hostility. Iraq is paying Kuwait due to the many UN sanctions tied to these repairs, that's not the case with the Iran-Iraq war, which is not all to be blamed on Saddam but also Khomeini who refused the 1982 cease fire.

can't hear, unclear

Kurds in Arbil are displacing random Arabs from their homes, forcing them out. Kurdish police does nothing. I've an uncle in Arbil as well, perhaps it's time to liberate it.

Look at liberated Kirkuk, KRG hanged Kurdish flags on every single street pole, everywhere you look you see a flag. Trying too hard to tell us that Kurdistan is a country, this level of nationalism is not even healthy and makes it impossible to distance one's self from ethnocentric views to any...

Do they not see how they're shitting all over themselves in front of the world when they attack embassies, on top of that i'd like to tell you most Iraqi embassies have Kurdish staffs due to Hoshyar Zebari(nationalist cousin of barzani) having been foreign minister in the past. They're attacking...

ISF is going to take ChamChamal as well. Perhaps after that we can finally focus on economic & construction, development etc. The country is already in a piece of shit state, Kordish sabotaging elements are not needed.

lol, these people are too brainwashed with nationalism for feeling such pride by downing or burning a flag, a piece of cloth. no wonder they're racist to non-kurds under their control

There’s an arrest warrant for khosrat something, vice pm of kurdstan. Hopefully he is not handed over so that arbil can be recaptured

Hopefully they upkeep the hostility with Iraq. Baghdad is at war with Kurdistan and they turned out to be a Joke, GOod job on the morale of biji nation

The US is the primary player in this case for a good reason, they have bases in Iraq and they effectively enforce airspace control in the country, not Russia. Therefor to undo the autonomy we have to invalidate the KRG government in the eyes of the US, PKK taking over is one possible method (but...

Requires PKK to take over KRG

What is that

KRG will be cut off from YPG completely, this is the plan Turkey-Iraq agreed upon when they reached an agreement to open a border at Faysh Khabur / Habur area, the ISF line will cut through the 2 Kurdish controlled area's (YPG-KDP).
