Islamic State militants launched attacks on the northern province of Kirkuk Friday, days after Iraqi forces began an offensive to recapture the extremist group’s stronghold of Mosul in a nearby region.

Provincial security officials said suicide bombers staged simultaneous predawn strikes on a police headquarters and other police targets in the city of Kirkuk—capital of the province with the same name—and surrounding districts.

No! We attack thinking they are there, and they slip out before hand and attack us here? The dirty, rotten, scoundrels. Who do they think they are messing with our strategic geniuses running this whole thing.

I got it. Next time, we will announce we will attack them where they are, but then we will fool them. We will attack them where they aren't. That's strategery /sarcasm.
