What are your thoughts on Abo Ezrael, his alleged war crimes, and how he works with the Iraqi PMF?

None. Is it a dish made with rice?

Oh, and if you're unaware of Abo Ezrael, he's been dubbed the "Iraqi Rambo". He's a former university professor that left to put a boot in ISIS ass, he's currently in command of the Iraqi PMF from my understanding.

Do you have a more specific question? This is kind of generic.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend".
He's a former member Muqtada Al-Sadr's Mahdi Army. Too bad we didn't kill him and Al-Sadr as well.

Never heard of this guy, why should I care who he is?

Sgt Private RallyPoint Member - The guy goes around videoing his role in small skirmishes, appears to keep up a steady stream of social media memes praising himself, claims 1,500 enemy ISIS kills, and pissed everyone off by slicing parts off deceased burned ISIS combattant. He has made himself and his family into a target ( video of his home instructing his tiny children to pull grenade pins if enemy appears in his doorway / home ). I know people in this part of the world are a little crazy - but there is something to be said for not painting a target on your own and your family member's backs. My guys say he is a celebrity showman who lacks the discipline and organization needed to effectively engage and defeat AQAP / Daesh / ISIS et al. Sandy :)

Makes no difference to me as it doesn't impact me. It's not like ISIS plays by the rules anyway.
