Haven’t we given Iraq enough?

Re “Obama weighs plan to deploy more troop advisors to Iraq,” June 10

Sometimes I have to wonder: Won’t we ever learn?

The Iraqis fought a major war against Iran and two against the U.S., and most recently they have been in constant combat with us advising and training them. We have seen them run from Islamic State fighters despite having overwhelming strength in weapons and soldiers.

If they still need advice and training, I say “fuhgeddaboudit.” Karl F. Schmid Los Angeles
