...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
s (ISIS).

On December 10, the US Department of Defense announced it resuming joint patrols with the SDF after being suspended on the background of the recent Ottoman Turkish escalation against northeast Syria.

The patrol, which was composed of four Bradleys and a Hummer, set off from the city of Rmelan accompanied by SDF fighters.

The patrol passed through a number of villages located between Rmelan and the village of Tel Maarouf. Staff of the patrol dismounted in three villages, chatted with villagers and paid a visit to the Huri Rehabilitation Center, home to a number of minors of ISIS families.

This is the first joint patrol to be mounted since November 23, the day on which the SDF suspended anti-ISIS operations with the US-led Global Coalition, citing preoccupation with recent Ottoman Turkish escalation against the region.
