Iraqi Forces are Blamed in ISIS Rout, well yeaaaah! Okay imagine it's 1864 and Abraham Lincoln was able to gather a volunteer force of Southerners to fight for the Union. They fight in Virginia and are garrisoned as a unit in a town in the Shenandoah valley. The locals call them traitors. All of them have family fighting against the Union and themselves as well. Doubtful there is much will to fight in that unit. How is it different than in Iraq and its civil war to split itself into Shia and Sunni regions?
Now for a real laugh. Imagine President Lindsey Graham petitioning the Congress for authorization to commit American boots on the ground to fight Iraq's Civil War.
