| Could the Islamic State be wiped out by a deadly Flesh-Eating disease? | ||

...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.... capital is currently in the throes of an epidemic and a number of members of the Islamic State have reportedly been infected. Efforts are reportedly being made to prevent the further spread of the Leishmaniasis skin disease, which is highly virulent, in the IS stronghold. Although organizations began work to combat the disease, this became impossible after IS is claimed to have closed down their city offices. They also confiscated equipment and tossed in the clink Drop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! officers trying to help fight the condition which can be deadly.
By the middle of 2014 500 people had been affected, according to a network of activists 'Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently.' The disease is spread by flies that are attracted by the rubble and rubbish of war. It can sometimes be fatal and can also cause significant damage to parts of the body it affects. More than 2,500 cases have been recored in the north-east of Raqqa. IS is said to have a residual force of between 3,000 to 5,000 in the city, as they attempt to strengthen their so-called caliphate. This comes after World Health Organisation reported that Syria's health system had collapsed, meaning that disease was spreading rapidly through a country already plagued by violence. | ||

| #7 The old story is that the 'Plague' was brought by refugees from a Black Sea port besieged by Mongols. The refugees escaped to Sicily where it spread into Europe proper. Scroll up to "Visiting Official: U.S. to Resettle more Syrian Refugees in the Near Future". Remember these are the same 'officials' who didn't/don't give a damn about diseases carried in by illegals Central Americans et al and barely blinked when Ebola patients were brought in without effective protocols for handling. |

| #6 AP, send them in as long as you don't let them out. This is starting to sound more and more like a Dark Ages conflict with each passing day. |
