US troops engage with ISIS
ISIS forces tried to penetrate the Ein al-Asad Iraqi military base last weekend where about a hundred US forces are deployed in Operation Inherent Resolve and an unknown number of them were sent to Allah, according to the UK’s Daily Mail;
Ein al-Asad came under repeated attack by ISIS troops in October, however, now bolstered by the U.S. assistance, it poses a much more formidable target.
Sheikh Mahmud Nimrawi, a tribal leader in the region, said ‘US forces intervened because ISIS started to come near the base, which they are stationed in, so (it was) out of self-defense,’ Shafaq News reported.
He added: ‘We have made progress in (the) al-Dolab area, in which ISIS has withdrawn from.’
Well, that’s what happens when you tell the world that you’re not sending combat forces into combat – they become politically attractive targets.
Thanks to Chief Tango for the link.

Politics don’t matter, once the bullets start flying. Get some, boys!!!
At least this time the *HAD* bullets*
But… but… but bodaprez SAID the troops weren’t going to do that.
What happened? Did he go back on his word? Did Tall & Stupid speak with forked tongue?
I am definitely all but-hurt on this one.
Don’t you know how to tell when the Glorious Leader is lying? It’s easy: if his lips are moving and noise comes out.
Today’s math word problem:
If it is an unknown number, then how many virgins do we order up?
Easy: 72n, where n is the unknown number. Shay’tan will know the value of n. And they all shall look like Helen Thomas at age 90. (smile)
And be dudes who watch Japanese cartoons.
Thanks guys, I never was any good at math…or procuring virgins.
Personally I never understood the whole virgin thing. I seriously would rather have 72 porn stars.
Good thing there are no boots on the ground in Iraq, those US guys must be in some sort of new tennis shoes….
Funny thing about attacking a fortified US position, it doesn’t roll over and run like the Iraqi turds ISIS is used to encountering….
I wish I could “magic” myself from my living room with a full combat kit and drop a few ISIS targets, then whoosh! “magic” myself back my cup of coffee. Those slimy bastards!
