| ISIS ‘regrouping and reforming’ in Iraq, but 'not making a comeback' in Syria: Pentagon |
| 2020-05-15 |
| [Rudaw] Islamic State ...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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS) Lions of Islam continue to pose a simmering threat in both Iraq and Syria, according to a new Pentagon report covering the terrorist group's activities between January and March of 2020. ISIS have been able to conduct a "low-level insurgency" in territories they controlled at the height of their power, "in mountainous and desert provinces north and west of Baghdad, particularly within an area of northern Iraq claimed by both the central government and the semi-autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government," read Lead Inspector General Sean W. O'Donnell's opening message to the report publicly released on Wednesday. |
