Police detain 81 ISIL militants in Turkey in latest wave
[Hurriyet Daily News] Turkish police have detained a total of 81 turbans of 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.... of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) in operations conducted in Istanbul, the southeastern provinces of Gaziantep and Sanliurfa, the northwestern province of Kirklareli, and the eastern province of Erzurum. Intelligence and counter-terrorism teams staged the operations after receiving new information on a group that recruits turbans and provides logistical support for the jihadists in Syria and Iraq. Some 21 senior members of the group were determined with technical and physical tracking to have sent turbans who arrived in ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... across the border to fight alongside ISIS. The group was also found to have hidden the turbans in several houses and gathered military equipment for logistical support. The police started the operations against the suspects on Oct. 26, raiding a total of 31 addresses in five provinces. Beylikduzu, Basaksehir, Kagithane, Fatih, Gaziosmanpasa, Pendik and Gungören were among the districts raided in Istanbul. A total of 81 people were detained in the operations, of whom 21 were in senior positions and of whom 20 were under the age of 18. Some 60 of those detained were foreigners. Passports belonging to several countries, identification cards, two pistols, 200 bullets, military camouflage, ISIS-related documents and digital material were confiscated in searches at the targeted houses. It was also determined that a number of people acting on behalf of ISIS brought the maimed jihadists from Syria and Iraq to Turkey and provided them with treatment. Meanwhile, ...back at the wine tasting, Vince was about to start on his third quart... U.S. Defense Minister Ashton Carter has stated that the U.S. has killed an ISIS turban who was planning an attack on Turkey. He did not say whether the jihadist was killed in Syria or Iraq.
