2014-12-08 | |
On Friday, the French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Odrian announced that a "massive" air raid was launched on targets of the ISIS organization in Iraq, pointing out that French aircrafts have carried out about 120-130 intelligence and shelling operations against the terrorist group since the beginning of the international coalition’s strikes, confirming that the latter ceased the expansion of ISIS in Iraq. Odrian said in a statement followed by IraqiNews.com, "A massive air raid took place today in Iraq," pointing out that, "The French aircrafts have carried out from 120 to 130 intelligence operations and bombardments against the terrorist organization ISIS since the beginning of the strikes of the international alliance."
He continued, "The coalition will provide air support until Iraqi forces can gradually regain its territories." | |

#1 Seems the French have had an epiphany on terrorism that the ever doting French admiring John Kerry should have had. Too bad youknowwho either doesn't care or likes the way things are going. |
