Iraq’s war 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....
since 2014 has left Iraqi soil contaminated with thousands of tons of unwent kaboom! ordnance and booby-traps. Leftover explosives have occasionally went kaboom! , killing several civilians since Iraqi authorities declared victory over the myrmidon group last year.
