SSG Jeremy Siebenaller 154705 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>With this "new" uprising in Iraq, what's next for our generation. Also...Can some one please explain to me exactly what IS going to go on with all this and/or what this new threat in Iraq is about? I am trying to learn as much as possible but I know that our press and outlets that we have here aren't the best. I tried looking into it further on BBC and other countries news stations and what not. I'm just not getting what exactly its all about and why we should be worried about it at all. What's next for our generation? 2014-06-14T23:45:10-04:00 SSG Jeremy Siebenaller 154705 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>With this "new" uprising in Iraq, what's next for our generation.

They have huge influences in Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and Kurdistan (Northern Iraq). The group is slowly taking over Iraq starting North and the Iraqi Army is putting up no fight (many of them just got into their vehicles and left).<br /><br />Now what is the threat? Democracy is disappearing and radicals are taking over once again.<br /><br />In short, it is Sunni vs. Shia once again.

I have been following it for a couple years off and on. There is at least one bombing a day that targets security forces and civilians. It has went down hill since the US has pulled out. <br /><br />I think it is a situation worth worry about. Chexck out Al-Jazeera English and check out there archives if you want to know more. You can also try Al-Akhbar, the Saudi Gazette, many of the Middle East countries have an English version of their news.
