Iraq
Exclusive: ISIS Admits To Suffering Great Losses In Mosul, Justifies Communications Cutoff
2014-12-01
[IraqiNews] On Sunday, 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 Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) admitted that the organization has incurred huge losses, that resulted in killing a large number of its Death Eaters, and tried to justify the communications cut off in djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
The organization revealed in a statement, issued by its 'Media Office' in the state of Niue, that infiltrators within the state do exist, spying for the Crusader alliance, that is conspiring against the Islamic State, noting that they "used various communication devices to provide the enemies with information about the Islamic State," which caused the State a great loss in lives.

The statement, which IraqiNew.com was not able to verify, added, "Crusader aviation managed to monitor the Mujahideen phones and track their movements, so the Islamic State decided to cut off all communication and prevented its return."

Noteworthy, the international coalition aircrafts launch almost daily raids on the ISIS sites, while the media has recently been talking about the cutoff of nearly all communications in the city of Mosul.

#3  The IS didn't put a strong enough leash on their orcs, for one. Probably IMNSHO because there's a split leadership.

#2  It seems to me, And please correct me if I am wrong, but when ISIS first burst on the scene, they were seen as the Supersized version of terrorists, yet now that there is push back it appears that maybe they aren't all they put themselves up to be. Like initially really aggressive, but not having a lot of depth.
Sprinters trying to run a marathon.
Anybody else share that feeling of late?

Who, who would rellay want the ISIS defeted, would launch almost daily airstrikes? Was Nazi Germany defeated with almost daily airstrikes? Japan? Saddam Hussein in both Irak wars? Who is laughing at our faces while playing golf?
