        It feels a bit wrong even though nothing much seems to be happening yet.

            Her link goes through to CNN (but gets her TV company ad clicks for doing so).
            Here's a direct link:
            http://edition.cnn.com/2016/10/17/mi...n-begins-iraq/

            The CNN story says that around 500 of the 5000 US troops currently in Iraq will be involved.
            Maybe she couldn't quite read, but needed to get the click bait up, hoping some mugs would just accept whatever she says.

            Who's involved in the Mosul offensive?
            54,000: Iraqi security forces

            40,000: Peshmerga forces

            14,000: Paramilitary units*

            500: US forces, mostly for logistical efforts

            *The paramilitary units include Shiites, Sunnis, Christians, Turkmen and Yazidis. Shiite members are assisting with, but not participating in, the Mosul offensive.

                That's the limit of your research into credible sources? No wonder you spout so much nonsense on this forum! Must try harder. Next visit to the Mitchell Library why not read some literature?
