[Ynet] The US-led coalition conducted 11 air strikes against 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.... forces in Syria and 15 in Iraq on Saturday, the task force leading the operation said. The strikes in Syria hit near Raqqa, Kamal, Manbij, Ayn Isa, Dayr Az Zawr, where one strike destroyed 16 skid-mounted gas and oil separation plants, the Combined Joint Task Force said in a statement Sunday. Six of the strikes in Iraq were near the contested city of Ramadi, where Iraqi government troops were fighting to keep turbans out of the city they had occupied since May, it said. They destroyed weapons, fighting positions, an improvised bomb and maimed three Islamic State fighters and denied turbans access to terrain. Other strikes hit near djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... , Kisik, Haditha, Albu Hayat, Habbaniyah. Posted by: trailing wife 2016-01-11 |
