| [Ynet] US-led forces targeted 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.... holy warriors with 16 air strikes in Iraq and nine in Syria on Saturday, the US military said. The air strikes hit or destroyed tactical units, tunnels, buildings and weaponry in six Iraqi cities, with the most strikes - six - centered on Ramadi, the Combined Joint Task Force said in a statement Sunday. In Syria, the coalition said eight air strikes around Hasakah - where Islamic State holy warriors launched an offensive last month - hit six fighting positions, three vehicles, two weapons caches and a bunker system. The ninth strike was near the Death Eater stronghold if Raqqa, it said. |

| #1 Six fighting positions, three vehicles, two weapons caches, one bunker system and a partridge in a pear tree. General Curtis LeMay has to be rolling his eyes at the daintiness of it all. |
