...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.... group. Ioannis Kasoulides said Friday that Cyprus has already dispatched two shipments of Serb-made Zastava assault rifles and ammunition to Kurdish fighters, delivered by US authorities. Kasoulides says any further assistance would be sent in consultation with Cyprus' partners in the anti-IS coalition. He notes that Cyprus fully supports Iraq's territorial integrity. Cyprus' top diplomat says La Belle France helped to deliver unused Cypriot light arms and ammunition to Leb's armed forces to thwart attacks from holy warrior groups on its northern border. Jordan received similar assistance. | |

| #1 Cyprus? Curious. Are they acting as a cutout for someone who doesn't want the heat from arming the Kurds? Or maybe they are just tweaking the Turks for that invasion business a few decades back. Either way, it's a good thing. |
