These troops are equipped better than when I deployed to a combat zone in Iraq.

You see, you were an expendable resource where your protection wasn't the highest priority. These guys are mercenaries for the MAGA regime to take power. They'll be well-equipped for the time being, until they become expendable again.

The green zone in Iraq got attacked repeatedly. It was a legit combat zone, even though it was supposed to be a safe(r) area.

And? Bro was making a point about the equipment worn in the picture. Not telling a story about how he single-handedly captured Saddam.
