1. Daesh is mainly killing Muslims.
2. Muslims are mainly killing Daesh.

Simple enough for you?

It's been simple enough for me, and apparently most everyone else on here. Not sure what your confusion is.

Meanwhile Basnews is reporting that the Peshmerga are finally to receive Tanks and "heavy weapons" from the USA.

Looks like the YPG and YPJ will have to make do with home-made stuff



or stuff nicked from Daesh

I already told you that. Let's try once more. The miniscule amount of abortionist shot (less in totality than one day of Muslim Infidel control action)rates as not simply a quantity difference but so hyper-infrequent that it is an anomoly compared to the thousands of headless adults and babies, courtesy of self proclaimed Muslims, that comprises a trend.

[TheRealFingers99]

I'm not sure that that's greatly reassuring, should you happen to be an abortionist in America.

I'm equally unsure that has anything to do with a thread about ISIS beheadings.

[TheRealFingers99]

Indeed. But you're the one who continued it.

Maybe the Republicans in Texas will press for tanks for the YPG/YPJ? I mean, they have corn, cotton, wheat, desert and nodding donkeys, too? Must be just like us!

Will he enjoy such fine coverage in Muslim lands?

Not quite sure of everything you just said, but always willing to share a beer!

I don't know. And I can't really check to find links because my Arabic amounts to "I'm bored, darling, don't forget the pineapple", "thank you", "hello", "goodbye", "God is great", "wow! God is great!" and "I swear by God" and I can't read it. (All my Arabic was picked up in takeaways and from a Somali girl friend -- it was her second language, after 2 dialects of Somali, -- she was also fluent in Italian and English -- and not a very good Muslim, but a believer, non the less.)

But were you to contact the Guardian, they'd probably tell you who it was syndicated to, who picked it up. You'd be surprised, I think.

Of course, in the Rojava it's old news -- Muslims work, live, die and fight alongside Christians, Arabs, Atheists and "Devil Worshippers".

So there you have it Scouse house can't see the difference between a wholesale massacre of anyone that isn't a particular brand/ flavour of the month radical Islamic fukhead and the odd incident of an abortion doctor getting nobbled by a US nutter.

Thats about it really

Of course I can.

But the terror campaign against abortionists wasn't just the odd incident. Indeed, home grown, "Christian" US terrorism remains dangerous.

Obviously, since the ranking Muslim haters on here couldn't take the point that the folk killing IS were (tadah!) pretty much all Muslims, I decided to open a (rhetorical) second front.

In good news

It's claimed that there may only be 250 ISIS left in Kobani town, possibly they'll be gone within a week. http://touch.latimes.com/#section/613/article/p2p-...

The big Iraqi refinery at Baiji has been retaken http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-eas...

Offensive in Diyala, to NE of Baghdad. with Peshmerga and Shiite militia involved. http://rudaw.net/english/kurdistan/19112014

In bad news

car bomb in Erbil by Daesh -- follows similar in Baghdad. Looks like this will become more of a pattern as ISIS are currently getting whacked on the battlefield. http://basnews.com/en/news/2014/11/19/kurdish-offi...

Isis has enough weapons to carry on fighting for two years, UN warns

[photosnob]

What is the feeling on whats going to happen next?

Clearly they are not keen on executing the women who isn't meant to be id'd. And John Cantlie doesn't seem to have been threatened directly yet...

I'd like to say that my guy says that is good. But something is telling me that something truly barbaric or horrendous is going to be done. They are clearly trying to goad us into a ground war - which now looks unlikely. So I'm not looking forward to what is coming up.

[toppstuff]

I think the tide is turning agains the Daesh IS.

As they start to lose momentum militarily, they will switch tactics to more terror-based activity IMO.

2015 will see the lands they have taken gradually taken back.

At the same time, the shadowy figures that support IS will start to lose interest as the western intelligence agencies close in on them.

Give it 3 years and I think IS will be finished.

We will probably never know what really happened behind all of this - who created IS and what was agreed that resulted in it all ending.

[TheRealFingers99]

For the hostages, who knows? I can't really see them executing John Cantlie now unless they can manage to scapegoat him for the defeat at Kobani (which would be quite a leap, even for them).

For the boots on the ground stuff, the Americans are talking about just that for Mosul (campaign slated for early 2015) but if Mosul can be surrounded I doubt it would be necessary, let alone sensible.

Still, the Americans have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory in the ME before now.

More of the same should get the job done with heavy weapons for the Kurds in Erbil and Rojava. And there are always the Iranians and the PJAK to dash in like the 7th cavalry if things go really pear shaped.

2 years, I'd guess, for the former Iraq (which may even survive as some sort of confederation).

Syria will take longer -- there are two elephants in the corner, Assad and Turkey.

Let's just blame the Saudis (more cause than WMD) & launch a war against them (share the proceeds) - there will be a decent sized coalition of the willing.
