There's quite a lot of internationals in the Syrian Democratic Forces, so I am not surprised that there's internationals in Iraq too. |

I guess Tomada hasn't been keeping up with the news these last 4 or 5 years. There are lots of volunteers from many Western countries out there, specially among the Kurds. If he does such poor research about the areas he travels into, I wouldn't trust one bit any of his reports and depictions. That's just plain incompetent and irresponsible. Dan |
