THE DIRTY DOZEN BUT MUCH MORE THAN A DOZEN.
From the War Nerd Internet web site and somewhat dated but still of interest.
"The Saudi Dirty Dozen and Jihadi as Risk Disposal"
By Gary Brecher September 10, 2013
The BASHI-BAZOOK! Criminals in the Islamic context released from prison on the condition they perform military service as an irregular combatant. Their reward plunder if possible with their sentence expunged.
Foreign interventionists in the Syrian Civil War fighting in furtherance of Saudi goals.
Criminals rarely if EVER make for good soldiers. Criminals accustomed to using violence but in almost all circumstances doing so against persons far weaker than themselves and not having an ability to resist. Criminals too not used to or again EVER comporting themselves in the manner of a soldier, accepting discipline of any sort.
Just a bad idea! Image however as accompanying this blog entry outstanding!
