The article mentions that Kurds have also recaptured Sinjar, the main town of the Yazidis.
Also interesting, the Kurds reported that ISIS had been running out of good troops recently in Kobani, and were sending more green recruits and even kids into the guns to be killed. They finally pulled out hastily, abandoning some weapons and supplies. ISIS might be focusing elsewhere, or they could be getting stretched everywhere.
They have been bleeding on several fronts, and it looks like they will have to defend Mosul this Summer from a large deliberate assault. They could be in for a mass casualty exercise there.
It’s a good thing to waste all those islamo nazi children , the brainwashed , murderous little bastards . It is also the perfect time to direct all air power to wipe Raqqa off the face of the planet . It not a low yield nuke strike , massive strategic bombing by the heavy bombers would do . Press the advantage , kill them in numbers wherever they congregate and immediately hang all captured ISIS fighters . Film and broadcast the public hangings widely in Europe .
Hope so! Hopefully ISIS will recruit as many wannabes from Europe and the U.S. and suck ‘em into the meat grinder. I’ll wait for the videos to be posted on you tube!
