Iraqi forces reach Nineveh govt building in Mosul
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Iraqi forces fighting ISIS in djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
reached the Nineveh province governance building and raised the Iraqi flag there on Friday, a senior US defense official said.

Elissa Slotkin, the acting assistant secretary of defense for international security affairs, also told a Pentagon briefing on the fight against ISIS that a US liaison team is in talks with The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
about helping its forces near al-Bab in Syria and has provided air support and surveillance in the past.

"We are engaged on an hourly basis with the Turks on counter-ISIS campaign in Syria," Slotkin said. "We have a liaison team that’s resident in Ankara. They are engaging every single day on the full spectrum of coalition support to the campaign."
