US, Allies Hit Islamic State's Oil Refineries In Syria
2014-09-25
[IsraelTimes] The Pentagon said the US and its Arab allies are launching more Arclight airstrikes into Syria against 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....
bully boys.

Pentagon front man Navy Rear Adm. John Kirby told CNN Wednesday that US and coalition forces hit 12 targets, including oil refineries that were providing up to $2 million a day in income to the Islamic State group.

Pentagon officials told AFP that aircraft from Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
and the United Arab Emirates took part in the latest round of US-led bombing raids against Islamic State jihadists in Syria.

The strikes are a continuation of the broader military campaign that began Monday against the bully boy group. Four Arab nations -- Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and United Arab Emirates -- participated in those strikes, and Qatar
...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates...
supported the attacks.

The Pentagon released no details on the strikes, but said the operation was continuing.

As of Tuesday, according to US Central Command, the US had conducted Arclight airstrikes that hit at least 20 locations in Syria. Combat aircraft flew 64 sorties.

#3  The refineries do not belong to ISIS. They belong to Syria, occupied by the death eaters. The Obama regime is attacking Syria and ISIS.
