...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.... (ISIS) ambush in Makhmour on Wednesday, the Iraqi Defense Ministry confirmed. "Hashd al-Shaabi forces were attacked by ISIS fighters Wednesday evening near djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... city," Ali Husseini, spokesperson for the paramilitary’s northern branch, told Rudaw. The Hashd fighters were traveling in a bus on their way from Mosul to Kirkuk. Those injured are being treated in hospital. Sirwan Barzani, commander of the Gwer-Makhmour front, told Rudaw the situation in Makhmour is "calm" and that the Peshmerga has opened the road to Hashd to allow them access to Erbil’s hospitals. | |
