Nancy A. Youssef & Shane Harris, Daily Beast: How ISIS Actually Lost Ramadi

Iraqi commandos and U.S. airstrikes drove the terror army from much of the city. But that war plan could backfire the next time around.

Pentagon officials hailed the U.S.-trained Iraqi army this week for retaking much of the western Iraq city of Ramadi from the self-proclaimed Islamic State.

But privately, Defense Department officials tell The Daily Beast the fight for Ramadi was a long slog led not by the army, known as the Iraqi Security Forces (ISF), but by an elite counterterrorism force, which itself was only able to beat ISIS with U.S.-led coalition airstrikes. The ISF, which have been the beneficiaries of years of U.S. training and funding, didn't lead the battle, but served in a support role, pointing out ISIS positions for air attacks and holding the roads that led to the city center where troops Monday flew the Iraqi flag.

WNU Editor: This analysis makes sense. This blog on numerous occasions could not understand how a few hundred ISIS fighters could hold-out (for months) against 10,000 Iraqi soldiers backed by Western air-strikes .... now we know why. This campaign took a long time (5 months) because the men who were actually doing the fighting were Iraqi Special Forces .... and all they did was order in air-strikes to destroy ISIS positions. It is also telling that after the battle there are not many ISSI bodies to show to the media .... nor prisoners. So where did they go? Or were they there in the first place?

KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......

Revenge is a Poison meant for others, which we end up swallowing ourselves. Vengence is a Dark Light that blinds all who seek it. Don’t argue with Idiots.. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
