Nineveh (IraqiNews.com) Eleven 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....
members were killed in Makhmur region in Nineveh province, a Peshmerga official said on Wednesday.

The Kurdish Rudaw network quoted Sirwan Barzani, who is in charge of the Peshmerga in Kuwair-Makhmur region, as saying that "Islamic State actions are ongoing at regions controlled by the Iraqi forces. The Coalition jets are covering the region, in cooperation with Peshmerga."

Barzani added that "at 11 PM on Tuesday, five Islamic State hideouts were targeted there, leaving 11 murderous Moslems killed."

"No joint military operation has been carried out by both the Peshmerga and Iraqi forces in the region," he added.
