Unusual Tournament Posted February 16, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2017 SpecOps Commander: 60,000 ISIS Fighters Killed by US Troops To date, U.S. coalition military efforts have resulted in the deaths of more than 60,000 Islamic State militants over the course of a two-year campaign, the commander of U.S. Special Operations Command said Tuesday. That figure is 10,000 troops higher than was reported in December, when U.S. officials said 50,000 of the extremist fighters had been killed. Speaking at the National Defense Industrial Association's annual Special Operations/Low Intensity Conflict conference near Washington, D.C., ArmyGen. Raymond Thomas said that figure should signal to Americans how successful the fight has been.

bmk1245 Posted February 16, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Good. Though, in Mosul still stalemate: western part still in ISIS hands. I think strategy in fighting ISIS should be rethought: capture ISIS fighter, spray him with pheromones, and let 72 horny boars shag him to the death. Spread video of that through ISIS media/chats with caption "Next in line is YOU". ISIS fighter death by homo-zoo-action certainly won't get ticket to the heaven... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavenHawk Posted February 16, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 16, 2017 That's not US troops. They are Shia militias supported by US. But if 60k have been killed, then they should be rolling into Mosul and the rest of ISIS territory. Uhmmmm? I'd be looking out for an attack in Baghdad... The ghost of Badr. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't have to look for too long... Baghdad car bomb kills at least 48 "At least 48 people have been killed in Baghdad in the third blast in the Iraqi capital in three days, security and medical sources say. A car packed with explosives blew up near car dealerships in the Shia area of Bayaa in the south of the city. More than 50 people were injured. The Islamic State (IS) group claimed the attack, saying it targeted "a gathering of Shias". At least 24 people were killed in other attacks on Tuesday and Wednesday." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unusual Tournament Posted February 17, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Maybe this whole Syrian war has been designed by the west and Russia as one big honey pot so as to attract all the cockroach zealots in one place to be exterminated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be ingenious. Not so good for the Syrians though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collateral damage is what the Syrian's are. Anyway. Why travel all the way to America and Europe to kill the evil "infidel" when you can fight and die all you like in the Middle East. Well so the brochure at the local mosque would read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamato Posted February 24, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 24, 2017 60,000? Wow! Give it up longtime for Commander in Chief Barack Obama and his coalition partners, ladies and gentlemen! For those worried about Obama being too weak, that many ISIS KIAs has to count for something huge. It's incredible that we killed 60,000 ISIS, Assad had to go, and Assad was caught fighting ISIS and Al Qaeda rebels into a perpetual stalemate that destroyed Syria. Yep must be a complete accident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Syria alone ? That's three times the size of the British Army, or the size of the entire US National Guard.SURELY that can't be correct ? I mean... how would 360,000 people actually GET to Syria ? That's 60,000 per year, or around 170 per DAY, every day, for 6 years ??? Where are they coming from ? *add* Ahhh... right.. this "report" considers doctors, nurses, wives etc as being "fighters", as well as other civilians forced to build tunnels or ramparts et al. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vorg Posted March 8, 2017 #14 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Tremendous kill ratio. I'm sure ISIS has killed 10's of thousands too. babies, children, women, unarmed men and older folks, and maybe a few hundred real fighters with weapons. Under my command, there would be no ISIS prisoners. Total annihilation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were still breathing at that point, I'd help them along to meet this "Olly" they keep chanting about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
