[Rudaw] The US-led coalition hammered 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.... (ISIS) bases on the Makhmour fronts by air late Thursday, a day after Peshmerga forces were involved in heavy festivities with the snuffies on multiple fronts, a Kurdish military official told Rudaw. "Coalition warplanes heavily bombarded the Daesh [Islamic State] (ISIS) bases in the villages of Sultan Abdullah, Matantar and Kudila in the west, east and south of Makhmour," said the official, who added that an unspecified number of snuffies were killed or maimed. He said that the air raids began at 5:30 pm.

It also reported Peshmerga causalities estimated at six dead. Posted by: trailing wife 2015-12-18 |
