| Will this lot return to ISIS or to Al Nusra when they graduate? |
[Ynet] The US military said on Friday it had started training "dozens" of Syrian opposition fighters to battle 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 Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
as part of a revamped program that aims to avoid mistakes that doomed its first training effort in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
last year.
US Army Colonel Steve Warren, a Baghdad-based front man for the US-led coalition battling Islamic State, told Pentagon news hounds that no Syrian fighters had graduated yet from the new program. |
