Had some thoughts when I heard some political expert in middle east said something about the Iraqi army and how badly trained they seem to be and had no confident in their belief(can't remember the exact phrase he used)

Here's my thought

How well would ISIS have succeeded if Saddam still had the power? I somehow recall the headlines from the time where he crushed every uprising in Iraq without mercy.

I'm not saying that it was a very bad idea to remove Saddam on the contrary, it was the best thing for the Iraqi people. but no "Marshall" plan thereafter well.....

Either the Leader of Iraq find a political solution where every fraction in the country is presented in a democratic government or he, a part I don't like, get better trained and equipped soldiers and crush this uprising.
