They were driven out of Syria in 2017, but now jihad forces are emboldened everywhere.
“ISIS terrorist attacks in Syrian Desert see uptick: Report,” by Ayham Merhi, Al Mayadeen, April 20, 2024:
ISIS attacks are seeing an uptick in the Syrian Desert since the start of 2024, with more than 150 attacks recorded over the past five months.
The recent ISIS attack on a bus carrying troops from the Syrian Army’s auxiliary forces, which resulted in the martyrdom of 22 members of the al-Quds Brigade, was not the group’s most severe attack in 2024. Numerous assaults on civilians and military personnel, particularly during the truffle-gathering season, preceded it.
This represents an unprecedented escalation in the organization’s attack patterns, methods, and impact as they have been relatively dormant since 2020. Since the onset of 2024, where 150 attacks have been recorded, with nearly two-thirds occurring in areas controlled by the Syrian Army, its auxiliary forces, and its allies, the group’s attacks have been on the rise.
Given that this figure spans a period of less than five months, it is significant and indicates that the organization has gained support financial and military support in a manner it had been lacking for years. This suggests that it is planning further attacks, possibly escalating them to the point of regaining control of areas close to the desert, in an attempt to stage a military comeback….
Taffy says
The Syrian army is powerless to defend themselves against an organized militia.

I wonder how much money is being redirected from legitimate sources of the State Department? Biden seems bent on having the world destroyed, I could believe almost anything evil coming from the puppet master string puller, Obumer.

We need to get the hell out of arab nations and let their leaders deal with the trash. We should keep our noses out until the winner is clear. Only then should we start dealing or not dealing with the country.
libertyORdeath says
Obama made sure to encourage the formation of ISIS after Bush and his father had defeated Iraq.
So it makes perfect sense that part of Biden’s job is to help reestablish all the terrorist groups that we’ve already defeated.
ISIS
Boko Haram
Al-Qaeda
ISIS-Kandahar
Hamas
Hezbollah
Palestinian Islamic Jihad
Al-Shabaab
The Houthis
They are ALL being encouraged and funded by our moronic leaders. They think it’s racist to oppose Islamic TERRORISM and they’re gonna teach you racists a lesson.
Then they’ll use the terrorist attacks to take away MORE of your rights.

If biden could figure out a way, he’d bring back osama bin ladin. And the suleimani iranian ghoul.
Hasn’t *his* doj been trying to allow the terrorists already locked up to again see the daylight of freedom?

James, one thing I believe about mozlums is that each one sees himself as the most devout, the most likely to sit next to the fake prophet in the fake paradise.
Each group is in charge of the territory where they are. al queda was formed by bin ladin on the advice of a fellow mozlum brotherhood member in Egypt who told him to go and take over afghanistan and run out the Russians.
Each terror name means something to the group which formed it…like al queda mans ‘the core”…and would manifest what islam stands for.
all, as you say are “variations” …I see them as branches on the same evil tree, getting sustenance to keep growing from the same evil root. Like a real tree, the longer it grows, the more branches; and the more branches, the larger and longer the root must grow to sustain the tree, taking up more and more ground and nutrients.

Yes, and I believe that your verbiage is more precise.
abu taleb says
They must have been “under occupation” so they keep attacking Syria. The same as in Pakistan or Afghan where those “under occupation” keep attacking.
They are entitled to attack and kill civilians and women because they are “under occupation”.
So why nobody else supports the ISIS or Al Qaeda? Harvard and Columbia students should demonstrate supporting ISIS and Al Qaeda, and call Syria, Pakistan and Afghanistan doing genocide if those countries revenge the attacks.
