الجيش العراقي محاصر بدون عتاد صامد بقوة إيمانه
أين دعم الحكومة عن هؤلاء المجاهدين الأبطال وهم بلا عتاد في قلب المناطق الارهابية.
It is unclear whether these soldiers came out alive or not. Opposing accounts have claimed both sides, and we are unable to verify at this time.

"Apparently the Soldiers didn't make it out alive. (According to YouTuber who claims one of the soldiers is from his neighborhood.)
- (Rough) ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS -
A: Soldier wearing all black AK-47 by his side
B: Wounded Soldier
C: Cameraman Soldier
0:00 - 0:29
B: Don’t cry my love. You’re brave. ("my love" is used between Iraqis a lot)
C: Don’t cry A you’re a warrior. If you weren’t one you wouldn’t be here in this position. But I didn’t expect this from you. (Basically saying I'm disappointed in you for crying)
0:43 - 1:19:
C: Talk to me/tell us whats going on.
B: What is there to tell? I know that Zahra’s Men will burn them and their families. We’re all brave soldiers. A bit ago they attacked us, I hit one of them with an RPG and blow him into pieces, and as I was about to hit the second one, I unfortunately got hit before I got to pull the trigger.
C: Blessed you are!
1:19-1:30:
B: Can I get a lighter? (speaking to A)
C: Just throw it, (insert A's nickname).
A walks and hands it to B instead.
B: What’s wrong with you my love? (Note: A hasn’t said a word yet)
A is crying and probably kissing family pics.
B: Don’t worry maybe a jet will fly by and help us. Don’t cry we’re Zahra’s soldiers. They’re cowards, I swear they’re cowards.
A walks away with saying anything.
B: How are you feeling my brother?
C: Who, me?
B: Yes
C: I swear I don’t want to say anything because you guys will think I’m exaggerating...
B: What’s going on?
C: I swear I feel like I’m at the "####” (he says at “the headquarters” but it doesn’t make too much sense)
B: Thanks be to God.
B: So, we’re out of ammunition. But I swear I’ll make it out and so will all these brave men. Look everyone has their weapons on the ground with no bullets. I have nothing but this one unusable bullet. We’re surrounded, but I promise we’ll make it out and I’ll show you the videos as proof. If you believe in God with strong faith anything is possible.
B: Come check my wound and see if it's serious.
C: Don’t worry I looked at it, it’s not too bad. "

It'd help if they didn't abandon the fight enmasse to begin with. To date the Iraqi army has surrendered at least 40 M1A1 main battle tanks, as well as small arms and ammunition, including 74,000 machine guns, and as many as 52 M198 howitzer mobile gun systems. No worries we are getting ready to ship them more supplies they will then turn over to ISIS, to the tune of 175 M1A1 Abrams main battle tanks, 55,000 rounds of main tank-gun ammunition, $600 million in howitzers and trucks, $700 million worth of Hellfire missiles and 2,000 AT-4 rockets. ISIS via way of the Iraqi Army will soon be the most well-armed terrorist organizaton on the planet.

CPT Ahmed Faried - Captain; What you have to remember is that those items have to be replaced and they are going to be replaced by American workers who work for American companies in American factories and that's good for the American economy and that's good for getting American votes for American politicians so that they can get elected to the American government and approve giving away more stuff that the American taxpayers paid for in the first place.

One has to wonder, how many soldiers do not have this kind of resolve & willingly join ISIS in order to survive? Good on them for trying, but it appears that this did not end well for them. At least some of the Iraqi soldiers are exhibiting courage, despite what other media sources tell us.
