#1 Basically, by showing up. The Iraqi certainly didn't.

#2 There was an interesting article in one of the UK papers about ISIS tactics in Tikrit.

They captured a military base and captured the personnel app intact. They downloaded the app and database to other ISIS laptops and set up checkpoints surrounding the city. When Iraqi men tried to get through the checkpoint, ISIS compared their names to those on the database.

There was a base nearby that held out. Many troops sent their families south to safety. However ISIS was waiting for them and took the families hostage. ISIS exchange the families for control of the base and a nearby pipeline.

#3 Yes, because stories of mass beheadings and Junta are all the rage.

#4 Frozen Al, I watched one of their 60 minutes highlight reels, and one of the things there were doing was going car to car with a laptop w/ camera taking face shots.

Nice to see they have a dating site as well. Helps spread the required homosexuality necessary for a true jihadi. My serious face, I am not slandering homosexuality with the comparison; I am pointing out the homosexual tendancies of the culture of devout muslim; marrying girls before they start to look like girls, selling women captives but raping the men, the discouragement of interacting with women to the point of encouraging only man-man relationships, to 'exercising' for the sake of butt bombs.

Dawn of Glad Tidings - sounds like a household necessity commercial. Howz about

#6 Now I'm picturing P&G at war with Caliphate Dudes... Logistics. It's all about the logistics.
