Mosul falls to ISIS

Didn't see another tread on this. this seems very serious:

  • Iraq's second city is now in the hands of ISIS

  • AQ distanced themselves from ISIS for being just a bit too nutty and violent

  • The Iraqi army just dropped their weapons and ran for it.

  • They left a whole bunch of US-supplied weapons and armoured vehicles for ISIS




Is this the same ISIS that got their posteriors handed to them by Hezbollah in Syria? How the hell is that possible?



The Iraqi army could have been a tad more proactive fighting these guys IMHO. With all that US equipment and training.



This warrants a very unpleasant intervention on the part of the US or possibly Iran, I think. Anything is better than a more-radical-than-AQ warlord-state.
