Topic: American Commandos Kill Senior ISIS Leader (Read 2591 times)

FSA army is being funded & armed by some NATO countries (not all of them) but they are in large part funded by Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies who "dislike" Assad regime; however, foreign countries like Russia among others are also helping the Assad's Syrian regime with funds, weapons and training too.

I don't think the war between ISIS and US can end easily. Aren't you curious where ISIS get the weapons?

If ISIS lose, so the "friends" lose a customer. Is there a conspiracy behind it?

Yes, It is. However, I cannot grasp what are you meaning. Do you mean a local news in Syria? Is Syrian Govt controlled TV & Media supposed to report on US Special Forces raiding a Terrorist/IS hideout when they're on the opposing sides of the fight there? Or do you mean IS TV reporting on their leadership receiving such a bowl from the American infidels & crusaders? I'm don't think such local media are interested in reporting such news unless their masters want to achieve a political mean with such reports.


What consumption you mean? It's only a short news of a military operation...you cannot wrote a long story about it, not yet at least. Only time can tell if this raid become important as the Sinjar one was. IMO writing longer story now is good only for action-fiction storytellers or writers.

I haven't heard this in the local news neither on the newspaper. Shouldn't this be an international news?

I don´t think it´s very suitable for consumption outside of the U.S. due to insufficient supply of excessively gullible idiots these days. Good luck, g

BEIRUT (AP) -- In a rare ground attack deep into Syria, U.S. Army commandos killed a man described as the Islamic State's head of oil operations, captured his wife and rescued a woman whom American officials said was enslaved.

A team of Delta Force commandos slipped across the border from Iraq under cover of darkness Saturday aboard Black Hawk helicopters and V-22 Osprey aircraft, according to a U.S. defense official knowledgeable about details of the raid. The official was not authorized to discuss the operation publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

The Americans intended to capture a militant identified by U.S. officials as Abu Sayyaf. When they arrived at his location, a multi-story building, they met stiff resistance, the U.S. official said, and a firefight ensued, resulting in bullet-hole damage to the U.S. aircraft.

Abu Sayyaf was killed, along with an estimated dozen IS fighters, U.S. officials said. No American was killed or wounded.

Before the sun had risen, the commandos flew back to Iraq where Abu Sayyaf's wife, Umm Sayyaf, was being questioned in U.S. custody, officials said. The goal was to gain intelligence about IS operations and any information about hostages, including American citizens, who were held by the group, according to Bernadette Meehan, spokeswoman for the U.S. National Security Council.

ISIS will not be defeated because the CIA don't want them eliminated. The primary aim of the CIA is to overthrow Assad. ISIS is a useful tool against Assad. But ISIS needs to be limited in Iraq, as the American oil corporations are owning most of the oil wells there. That is why the US is conducting useless air-strikes, but not conducting any ground operations.

ISIS will no be defeated easy if we dont start to do some more missions down there.
Ofc we have fighters bombing daily but there is too many psychos that keep joining them so they can keep up.

It is not easy because of the help they get. First, their help should somehow be blocked.

Hope the next news report will be,

"ISIS waved the white flag, and the world will be now in peace".
