Iraqi Forces Hold Off Jihadist Attack on Ramadi
[AnNahar] Iraqi forces held off a jihadist assault on the government headquarters in the capital of Anbar province, deploying reinforcements in the key battleground against the Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group, officers said Thursday. Security forces, backed by rustics, managed to defend the complex in Ramadi, which lies 100 kilometers (60 miles) west of the Iraqi capital and is one of the last major urban areas in Anbar under Baghdad's control.
