Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Islamic State claims attack on US forces in Iraq that killed two and injured five

Aug 13, 2017 11:43 am By Robert Spencer

Once the caliphate is definitively rolled up, the jihadis from Europe and North America will return to the countries of their citizenship. And those countries, apparently bent on suicide, will let them back in. Many have already been allowed to return.

“Islamic State claims attack on U.S. forces west of Mosul,” Reuters, August 13, 2017:

Islamic State on Sunday claimed an attack on US forces assisting Iraqi troops in the war on the jihadist militants in northern Iraq.

Islamic State fighters fired Grad rockets on American troops east of Tal Afar, a town still under control of the militants west of Mosul, according to an online statement from the group.

The American military had said earlier that two US service members had been killed and five injured during combat operations in northern Iraq on Sunday.

Islamic State’s self-proclaimed “caliphate” effectively collapsed last month…

    ………………..

    I have been proud of the work the US has done in dismantling the Islamic State, but ISIS has *hardly* gone away.

      Do you know U$ and its allies created ISIS? Watch the video clip below as Gen. Wesley Clarck explains it:

        Christianblood, most Americans realize that Wesley Clark is a loon on most issues–and a darling of the Left.

        Besides, you are only citing Clark here because of his calumny against the United States and our “allies”–surely you have not forgotten that he tried to fire upon the Russians? I doubt you support that–no sane person would.

        In any case, you have done this before, pretending that the United States is responsible for creating violent Jihad. Utter rot.

    U$, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UK, ISIS, Turkey, Al-Nusra and dozens of other jihadist groups and pro-jihadist states were all united in deposing Assad by force and now, after six years and on the brink of their eventual defeat in Syria and Iraq they are turning on one another!

      You are very right, Rosremary!

      The US is not funding ISIS–but “Christianblood” is ecstatic that someone claims they are.

      He has said many times that he does not really have a problem with Islam or even Islamic terrorism–he just wants to see Islam destroy America and the West.
