It takes a special kind of idiot to send their military to the desert in combat gear that is meant for blending within forests not a bloody desert in the middle east.

Well, I hadn't heard about the first thing and the last thing was about sharing information in social media (that spies collect).
" The first Canadian soldiers to arrive in Afghanistan in 2002 wore green camouflage designed for forests, because the army had sold its sand-coloured uniforms. Now they sport desert-hued outfits with a digitalised pattern redesigned for added stealth."

It seems that they didn't have proper uniforms to there at all at that time. Seems that they are not alone in this. This came up with the same googling.
"Despite the desert conditions of the Iraqi campaign, many American soldiers are sporting deep-green combat fatigues. Why are some troops donning woodland camouflage?
According to published reports, the Pentagon simply goofed by not anticipating the demand for sand-colored desert fatigues"
"A dearth of appropriately stealthy uniforms was also a problem during Gulf War I, as many U.S. troops were forced to wear dark green. The Pentagon learned at least one lesson from the 1991 conflict, however: The Marines' anti-chemical-weapons suits, known as Mission-Oriented Protective Posture clothing, used to only be available in woodland patterns. The latest MOPP gear features a three-color desert design."
