It would be ironic, though, if they got ahold of a few of our M1A1 Abrams tanks, fully-loaded and ready to go.

Just like the missing pistol and rifle loadout supplied to blackwater,only to go missing and reappear in the hands of al-quaeda,
Courtesy of the PKK.
Iran Contra rides again.

An Iraqi tribal chief said it a couple of months ago while we were arming the al-Anbar insurgents who used to be our enemy to fight al-Qaeda. “We hate them worse than we hate the Americans, once they’re gone, we’ll come after the Americans.”

The same thing will happen in Afghanistan and Pakistan; ulitmately, none of these countries wants to be occupied by our forces.

Nice of us to train them in our tactics and strategies the meantime, while we supply them with our weapons. Makes our ouster that much more convenient for them.
