Perhaps the really humiliating, those images that spread yesterday to withdraw the irregular forces of the Iraqi army from the city of Ramadi, and what appeared on the troops from a panic fleeing under fire, but they were not a surprise. Valrmada «dilapidated» in the hands of the organization Daash for a long time, with the acute shortage of gear, weapons and forces experienced by the tribes, and the failure of Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, or failing received the aid. can not be here exaggerate the scale of the disaster, Valrmada Anbar province, which is equivalent Center one-third of the area of Iraq, and given the importance of great symbolic and strategic, especially as they linking Baghdad and all of Syria and Jordan. Of course, the fall represents a direct threat to the outskirts of Baghdad, where it is believed he was already spread dormant for organizing cells waiting for the zero hour. Despite the potential Limited, gray managed already to survive for seven months before the organization attacks, even come in front of him the opportunity to achieve the first important victory after losses in Salah province religion. Rather than a victory in Tikrit catalyst for Iraqi forces to advance towards Mosul, edit, find themselves today in the face of a tough battle, sees the organization «the last confrontation» before crawling towards the capital. There are tough questions are inevitable here put forward, especially with the high number of victims, where killed 600 Iraqis have fled seven thousand civilians from their homes against the backdrop of violence witnessed by the city of Ramadi and fall, however, the organization Daash in less than two days according to what he said the Iraqi official Faleh al-Issawi, deputy head of the Anbar Council: First: Why did the government Abadi over the past months to support government forces in gray, parallel with the repeated refusal of the calls launched by the tribes there to supply weapons necessary to defend the city and forces? Secondly, if the government ended Abadi finally to the crowd that the use of the Shiite forces necessary to save the gray, what is the reason for the delay in making this decision? Were they waiting for approval to come from Washington first? Third: Who is responsible for a repeat scene «The Great Escape» of the army at the Battle of Ramadi, reproduced what happened in Mosul last year? Is this behavior reflects the true level of the extent of training and combat readiness? Or is it that there is a «conspiracy» to hand over the city is also promoting some parties inside and outside Iraq? Fourth: Where are the promises made by al-Abadi personally on himself almost a year ago in the wake of the fall of Mosul, re-Iraqi army building on the basis of professional and national, make his loyalty to Iraq and not to the party or range? Whatever the justifications that could be adduced by the government, in the absence of a real central army, the Iraq today, torn apart without a state, as it holds his defense, accusing the sectarian militias and subordination to Iran, and was found guilty of committing human rights violations in Tikrit and other, and thousands of advisers Americans and the Iranians and others and aircraft for an international alliance Some accuse him it helps regulate Daash instead of fighting him. and with full security collapse in Anbar, is no stranger to rush the Iranian defense minister to visit Baghdad on Monday to discuss preparations for the new battle, it will not be easy in any case, whatever be the outcome, it will to change the strategic balance of Iraqi forces, and possibly regionally.
