| [Ynet] The United States and its allies conducted 22 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.... in Iraq and Syria on Thursday, the coalition leading the operations said in a statement on Friday. In Syria, three strikes in two cities destroyed an Islamic State mortar position and two fighting positions. In Iraq, 19 strikes in seven cities targeted tactical units and destroyed weapons, vehicles and a communications tower, among other targets. |
