| Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) The food security situation for 3.5 million Iraqis displaced by the war against 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.... snuffies remains "fragile", a United Nations ...boodling on the grand scale... official in Iraq said Sunday. Fadel a-Zubi, representative of the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, that nearly 3.5 million displaced people, 3 millions repatriated and 250.000 Syrian refugees inside Iraq are experiencing a "fragile" access to food. He added in press statements that families in the western side of the city of djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... , where Iraqi forces are days away from eliminating the Islamic State, are finding a difficulty in getting foodstuff. He said FAO continues efforts to rehabilitate damaged irrigation canals in the province so as for farmers to resume work to secure their food needs. The war against IS in Mosul, now entering its ninth month, has displaced at least 900.000 civilians. The Iraqi government and U.N. agency estimate more than four million people displaced since the emergence of the Islamic State snuffies in 2014. Adding to medical and foodstuff shortages, refugees have been increasingly targeted by IS snipers or caught and later executed during their attempts to flee battlefields towards areas held by security forces. IS fighters have also reportedly held food supplies for fighters and their families exclusively. |

| #3 I hadn't heard that term in years, g(r)om. You reminded me. (snicker) If Fadel's spelling of his surname is correct, very appropriate. |
