...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.... position in the oil-rich province of Kirkuk. In a press statement, a copy of which was obtained by Alghad Press, the ministry denied that its F16 jet fighters raided a hideout of nine Islamic State turbans in Wadi Abul Khanager area between al-Riyad and al-Rashad districts in Kirkuk. "All reports circulated in this regard are baseless," the statement read. Kirkuk officials previously urged reinforcing military troops in the south and west of the province, as the region still has Islamic State members who escaped during the liberation of Hawija to remote areas. | |
