Baghdad, Iraq (CNN)ISIS has closed off a dam to the north of the Iraqi city of Ramadi -- seized by its forces last month -- cutting water supplies to pro-government towns downstream and making it easier for its fighters to attack forces loyal to Baghdad, local officials and residents said.
ISIS militants are opening only two or three of the dam's 26 gates on the Euphrates River for brief periods daily, the officials and residents said.
The head of the security council in the town of Khalidiyah, Sheikh Ibrahim Khalaf al-Fahdawi, and two residents of the nearby town of Habbaniya told CNN on Thursday that this move was to prevent river water overflowing from ISIS' side of the dam, and also to allow some water to flow downstream toward ISIS-held Falluja. . .

If these ISIS jihadis aren't more careful they may force the magic Kenyan to drop a few bombs on them after all.
One of the first things Obama did when he became president was to cut off the water to the farmers in California.
Uh oh...the UN will get upset with ISIS...just like they did with Detroit when the city turned off the water for nonpayment.
I guess that didn't pan out so well.
I think a denial of water may be a war crime.
And 3 of 4 planes come back with their bomb loads.
Obama allows Planes ,but NO BOMBS
Boy oh boy, Obama sure is stupid isn't he?
I think ISIS will be taking Baghdad in the near future. Can’t wait to hear 0bungles, Earnest and the bootlicking MSM spin that. And they will.
One gent said something about them getting 40 Abrams tanks and thousands, hundreds of Humvees.
