| [ALMASDARNEWS] Iraq is in full control of the Syrian border region after ousting the so-called 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) from the region, Kurdistan 24 reported, citing the head of the Iraqi Border Guards. According to the Kurdistan 24 report, the commander of the Iraqi Border Guards, Major General Hamid ’Abdullah Ibrahim, told the news agency that they completed the construction of a barbed-wire fence along the Iraq-Syrian border. "We are now concerned about the Syrian border. We have put forward a program based on Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi’s request...and are doing strategic work to protect the border," Ibrahim said in a press statement, as quoted by Kurdistan 24. The Iraqi Border Guards are now working to install thermal cameras to prevent any further Islamic State infiltrations from Syria. "Neither infiltrators nor smugglers nor holy warriors will penetrate our borders in the future," the Maj. Gen. continued, adding the border guards’ work will expand following the strengthening of the Syrian-Jordanian-Iraqi border triangle. |

| #1 "Neither infiltrators nor smugglers nor holy warriors will penetrate our borders in the future" As the good General twiddled with his magnificent mustache, there was snickering heard from the areas off-camera. Probably from the smugglers in his entourage. |
