counterpunch.org/2014/12/02/iraqs-ghost-army/ >The Iraqi army includes 50,000 “ghost soldiers” who do not exist, but their officers receive their salaries fraudulently according to the Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi. “The Prime Minister revealed the existence of 50,000 fictitious names,” said a statement after a thorough headcount during the latest salary payments.
>“Ghost” soldiers may never have existed and just be fictitious names added to the roster, or they may once have existed but been killed or deserted without this being officially noted. In either case, the officer in a unit would keep receiving the salary, though he would have to share it with his superiors. Another scam is for soldiers to kick back part of their salary to their officer in return for staying at home or holding another job but never going near a barracks. Mr Abadi’s figure of 50,000 is probably only a modest estimate of the numbers of Iraqi soldiers who play no military role.
>Asked why the Iraqi army had disintegrated at Mosul, a retired four-star general said the explanation was “corruption, corruption, corruption”. He said that this had become institutionalised when the US was building a new Iraqi army after dissolving the old one in 2003. The Pentagon insisted that supplies of food and other necessities be outsourced to private companies. The general said that as a result the Iraqi government might be paying for a battalion with a nominal strength of 600 men, but which in fact had only 200 soldiers. Profits would be shared between officers and commercial companies supposedly supplying the army.
If the Kurds are cucks, how did they resist the Arabization all those centuries?
If they are cucks, how come they are the only ones who did not bow down to SoDumb Hussein?
If they are cucks how come they ended up getting what they wanted, an autonomous region.
It is in the Iraqi constitution that the Kurdistan Autonomous region is legit, their flag is aknowledged, even the Kurdish language became official language in Iraq.
How is that cucked? You are contradicting your self there, buddy.

>preoccupy policymakers,
>and shape global economic patterns, according to the report.
1) Yes it dominates the news headlines because they are either getting fucked by Iranians, or Americans. Or they get the headlines of runing away from 800 sheep fuckers.
2) Yes, they preoccupy policymakers because they are now the bitch of Iran and US. They are being fought over by the Iranians and Americans. That is why every policymaking in the world regarding the mid east is revolve around the Iranian influence in IRAQ.
3) Ofcourse they shape globale economic pattern. The OIL resources. The west and Iran fighting for those resources to control the market. Specially when there are sanctions on Iran and won't allow Iran to sell their oil.
Learn the article next time to understand why people laughing at you here.

No cases but the president will use the situation around the world to his advantage and try to stop planned protests and postpone the election re run etc he has declared a "state on national disaster"

Grab masks if you can find some hand sanitizer, flour and stuff... The usual basic things.

still, even with ghost soldiers problem they still outnumbered them 100 to 1 and we can also talk about tikrit: 4k iraqi soldiers captured by a few hundred ISIS fighters 2k of those will then be executed
it's not only an iraqi gov problem, all paper countries have shit tier armies only "fighting" for money which collapse as soon as shit goes down see afghanistan
