Are We Ready For The Fall Of Baghdad?

Are We Ready For The Fall Of Baghdad? | Zero Hedge:
"This is simple payback for Washington's threats, banking fines and penalties against institutions and nations de jure that fail to march to the US tune of dictating trade and financial arrangements.
The world is now ganging up on the United States because Washington has terrorized smaller nations around the world for decades as the big bully on the block.
 We've had the misfortune of watching ISIS – originally funded and equipped by the US, Saudi Arabia and other Persian Gulf allies, as was Bin Laden – turn on their benefactors out to destroy Assad in Syria because of a pipeline deal and take over much of Iraq.
My point is just as the pro-US South Vietnamese government could not survive without major US forces, neither will the present government in Baghdad.
So what could happen to the massive, fortified Baghdad US Embassy in the Green Zone that rivals the Vatican in size?
What are the possible military objectives of the Islamic State fighters (ISIS) in regard to the Iraqi capitol?"
