Iraqi Authorities Lift Curfew In Anbar Capital
2014-10-20
[Ynet] Iraqi authorities in the country's western Anbar province have lifted a curfew imposed Friday in the picturesque provincial capital of Ramadi over fears that the bandidos Lions of Islam might try to advance on the city.

Anbar provincial council chairman Sabah Karhout said Sunday that the curfew was lifted the previous day.

Karhout says 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....
bandidos Lions of Islam continue to shell some neighborhoods with mortar rounds but have failed to seize additional territory in the city.
