In absence of govt Jalawla residents clear town with own hands | |
2016-01-22 | |
Around 200 families returned to Jalawla last month after it was cleared of many bombs and explosives left behind by bully boyz 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS). The town's municipality machinery were destroyed in the war or stolen by ISIS. So these people use their own tools. They hope for more support from the Diyala government. Jalawla was taken by ISIS August 2014 but it was liberated by the Kurdish Peshmerga three months later. The town is home to Kurds, Arabs, and Turkmen. | |
