| Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) The Iraqi military estimates that 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.... had dug 100 underground tunnels on the borders between Iraq and Syria, military sources were quoted saying on Wednesday. Aljournal News website quoted a source from the Iraqi border guards saying that the troops discovered four underground tunnels in December, with some reaching 1.5 kilometer in length and used by the bully boyz to move between the two countries. "Now, we can confidently say that borders are within the grip of the army, the Popular Mobilization Forces, border guards and tribes, all doing an integrative job," the source said. "Attacks against our forces by Islamic State cells are usually launched from Syria, and are mainly suicide one, but we still have certain issues to decide on, most importantly to put an end to (border) infiltration". According to the source, "Islamic State bully boyz posses maps of the tunnels they have dug professionally over the past years, and we believe there are one hundred tunnels along the borderline...they should be destroyed whatever it takes". Another Iraqi army officer, who asked not to be named, said the tunnels "threaten the mission to close the borders", adding that "a single tunnel could pose a threat to Iraqi lives". |
