15 ISIS militants killed in Peshmerga ambush
2015-11-08
[Rudaw] At least 15 forces of Evil of the 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 Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group (ISIS) were reportedly killed while trying to infiltrate across Peshmerga stockades in the village of Bashary in western djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
, a Kurdish military official told Rudaw.

"An ISIS group of 15 forces of Evil tried to infiltrate across a Peshmerga stockade but was repulsed, said Captain Khalid Hamzo, deputy commander of the Duhok Peshmerga Battalion.

"Before reaching the Peshmerga barrier they were bumped off," he told Rudaw Friday, adding that an ISIS emir, or governor, named Adnan, was among the dead.

"The ISIS position was bombarded several times by Peshmerga and repulsed. Later, the US coalition managed to conduct Arclight airstrikes on the ISIS stronghold and kill them all," Hamzo said.

Mosul fell to ISIS in June last year. The defeat was a humiliation for the Iraqi Army, with many troops known to have abandoned their weapons and uniforms as they fled the Islamist onslaught.
