| Analysts: Jihadist 'caliphate' has peaked |
| 2014-12-04 |
| [IsraelTimes] The tide is beginning to turn on the 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.... group, analysts say, with the jihadists losing ground in Iraq and only able to hold on to their positions in Syria. Harassed by air strikes and facing better coordination among their opponents, IS fighters have suffered a string of defeats in Iraq and had to retreat from some areas they had conquered in June and the following months. |
