Iraqi troops suffer mass slaughter one mile from Baghdad: the general ISIS Chat thread

[kingblaze84]

Keep on cheerleading for Assad to be taken down, no problem.

the difference between you and i is that i'm cheerleading the idea that Syrians not be oppressed and murdered by their government, and you don't give a fuck what happens to them as long as the right guys do it to them.

America actively supports the apartheid in Palestinian territories by giving Israel more aid and support then any other nation out there.

again, you'd rather blame the country that supports something than the country that's ACTUALLY DOING what you object to.

And I don't give Assad a pass, I already said he deserves criticism for how he's handled things.

no, this is basically a lie. going to repeat myself:

"kills tens of thousands of Syrians = "is harsh to his enemies"

kills protesters at funerals for other protesters = "could have handled it better"

then drops "if he is that bad.""

Often times though, it seems you give America a pass for the many, many atrocities it commits in the region and support for apartheid in Palestinian territories.

a. no, i don't. i might dispute some of your outlandish claims, but i don't give a pass to actual misdeeds. meanwhile, you're posting in this thread pretending you've never seen articles POSTED IN THIS THREAD about Assad's misdeeds.

Funny how you don't show that same outrage to the MANY innocent victims of American bombs and bullets in Iraq and other places, but yeah, Assad is not an angel. You want him taken down pretty badly, eh? Well I don't see him losing power in any serious way, ISIS is not as powerful as they used to be in Syria and Al-Qaeda can only do so much. The moderate rebels can't do much without America or others babysitting them, so it looks like your fantasies of Assad falling from power will have to wait just a little longer.

Be careful what you wish for though, I'm willing to bet many more Syrians will be killed off and have even worse lives if Assad or his regime ever loses power. You know damn well American interventions usually end in neverending spending and enemies who seem to always torment America's allies and bankrupt them.

Up close footage of ISIS militants and Iraqi/American forces fighting it out in Mosul last week. Very intense

 

[Will Munny]

Omg that guy has one leg living in Iraq and he's still poppin shit. God damn we are pussies in America.

 

[kingblaze84]

Omg that guy has one leg living in Iraq and he's still poppin shit. God damn we are pussies in America.

Although most of us, including myself, oppose ISIS ideology, I gotta give ISIS fighters credit, they are usually very brave fighters. Only brave fighters would keep fighting with airstrikes and drones targeting them all over the place.

Iraqi soldiers on the other hand are giant pussies and if Americans didn't blow up so many houses and apartments on purpose, I highly doubt the Iraqi government would be so close to taking Mosul. That dude standing on one leg and still popping the draco is representative of the spirit so many of these ISIS fighters have. Basically, ISIS isn't going anywhere, just like the Taliban is never leaving Afghanistan.

 

[kingblaze84]

If one looks at the video, you can see Iraqi soldiers still can't aim for shit either lol smh

Was the one leg guy an ISIS fighter? I suppose if it's Mosul that means ISIS.

Fuck ISIS tho. Of course they're brave, they've brainwashed since birth to believe they're doing the most righteous and holy thing they could be doing. It's gotta be pure euphoria for them.

I do wonder if we treated all those ISIS held cities like Dresden what would happen. Not advocating for that, but curious.

That one legged guy was definitely an ISIS fighter, the video was split between a reporter showing the ISIS side and a reporter showing the Iraqi soldier side.

And yeah ISIS and their followers do think they are on the righteous side, as most religious fanatics believe. With America and the Iraqi govt famous worldwide for their many atrocities against Iraqi civilians, especially Sunnis, ISIS is gonna have a long list of recruits joining them for years to come.

In some ways, America has already firebombed civilian cities in ISIS territory. It happened a lot during the Obama years and much more in the Bush years. There are civilians and human rights groups who say America has blown up many houses and apartments on purpose, but if America did that shit WW2 style, I think it would only create more problems. America killing so many civilians during the early years of the Iraq War is a huge part of the reason ISIS became popular to begin with. ISIS supposedly can make laptops turn into bombs, I don't think America should really push WW2 style warfare on them. But with Trump, you never know.

 

[Will Munny]

yah I don't think it would be a good thing to push total war, but when people say ideas can't be bombed out of existence... it worked in the idea of Nazism.

The only way total war might could work would be if the US made it such a living hell in cities like Mosul that the population had no choice but turn away from ISIS. that shit ain't gonna work tho, and even if it would we don't have the stomach for it.

 

[kingblaze84]

Yeah no one has the appetite for WW2 style raids in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan, among other places. Obama dropped 26,000 bombs in 7 different nations ISIS and Al-Qaeda have influence in, and we see clearly that didn't do anything to end terrorism.

ISIS ideology has to be defeated for America and its allies to have any hope of defeating ISIS completely. But because America is looked upon as such an evil nation in so many parts of the world, ISIS ideology will live on for a very long time. Their videos constantly mention America, and it's not a coincidence, they know bashing America will bring them recruits.

 

[janklow]

Funny how you don't show that same outrage to the MANY innocent victims of American bombs and bullets in Iraq and other places-

except that i do? in that i acknowledge it happens, whereas you outright claim Assad's merely being a little harsh.

-but yeah, Assad is not an angel.

sorry, "not an angel!"

I still remember the room. It was very small. The interrogators came and went. There were different men, different faces. I don’t remember all of them because I was so weak by that point. It's not easy to describe the pain and humiliation of torture.

First they asked for the names of the people I was working with. Then they asked me to confess that I’d been carrying heavy weapons and that I’d murdered a military officer. I was screaming that I didn’t. I was shouting that I just wanted freedom for them, for myself, for everyone. I just wanted to live in freedom. They looked at me blankly. It was like I was speaking to them from another world. So they continued, and they were merciless.

I was still holding out when they hung me from the ceiling by my wrists for an hour, feeling like my body weight was going to break my wrists. When they brought me down, they pulled out a chair and asked me to sit. That was when they pulled down my trousers and held up a sharpened metal pole and a clamp for my penis. When they started to turn the screw, I confessed everything they asked.

"but yeah, Assad is not an angel."

As Syrians, you grow up hearing a lot about torture. You hear things you cannot imagine even a psychopath doing. They did all those things to us and more. But in Sednaya they didn't even bother with an interrogation. It was sadism. Our cell was meant for seven men but it held almost 60. We took it in turns to lie down, and if too many of us were too weak to stand, we lay on each other. There was no bathroom, only a hole in the floor that every man had to share. The smell has never left me.

I was one of the “service” guys. It meant we had to work for our jailers. Sometimes it was just cleaning; other times it was carrying away the bodies. They made us beat people, too. By the end, I didn't even question it. We'd get beaten for not attacking the inmates hard enough. I saw one man kicked to death because our guards didn’t think he had done a good job.

"but yeah, Assad is not an angel."

The police came in the middle of the night to take my three brothers. Two of them were silent as it happened, but Abdulsalam fought like a wild cat. He thought they were going to try to take me, too, but they left me behind in the destruction of my home and all our possessions.

We asked everyone where the boys had been taken. My mother stood outside every prison, sometimes waiting so long that the sun was too much for her and we had to come and collect her. She did that outside a different place every day, just in case someone would tell her something. My father spent so much of our money, hoping the bribes would bring news from inside. A lot of people tricked us and said they had information. The wait made me empty. It was like there was a hole inside of me. We waited three years.

One day we got a call. They told us they were all dead. They were killed days after they were taken and all that waiting was for nothing. Abdulsalam was my best friend. I still have nightmares about what they did to him. But you know what? Part of me still doesn't believe it. We haven't seen the bodies; we haven't had a death certificate. I still pray for them when I go to sleep, just in case.

"but yeah, Assad is not an angel."

don't tell me you give a shit about innocent victims when you literally pretend to not read stuff like this getting posted in this thread.

Be careful what you wish for though-

shit, you're insisting on being willfully ignorant about what i wish for.

Well to be fair, we don't know if Assad is ordering these things but if he is, then that's horrible. At the end of the day, Assad's crimes are still quite small compared to American ones, but the Syrian regime has been shady for sure.

I do care about innocent victims in war, America has a way bigger body count compared to Assad's regime, but hey, I would be curious to see what Syria would look like with Assad's regime falling. It would be interesting seeing jihadists enslave and chop off the heads of even more religious minorities, especially Christians. It would be interesting seeing even more Christian women being sold off into slavery and being raped.

I don't see Syria being more peaceful with Assad falling down, I see only more chaos, mayhem, and slavery and enslavement of women from jihadis. Seeing all that INCREASE with Assad's regime falling down would be EXTREMELY interesting to me. Feel free to continue cheerleading for Assad's regime to fall. I would die with laughter seeing my predictions come true, but in a meanwhile, Assad is consolidating his grip in territories he controls. That disappoints you, I'm sure.

LOL, so you don't want Assad removed from power now?? You getting second thoughts?

Either way, Trump has ZERO plans to take out Assad, but he does have plans to take down North Korea's regime sometime this year. The world isn't gonna do shit about Assad, not as ISIS blows up teenage girls in countries that are part of the US coalition.

 

[kingblaze84]

At least 22 dead and 59 wounded in the extremely brutal bombing that ISIS claimed responsibility for in Britain last night, many of the dead and wounded teenage girls and their parents. How ironic this attack took place only a few days after Trump begged the Muslim world to stamp out terror. I also found it funny how Trump said Iran is a leading sponsor of terrorism in his speech, yet Saudi Arabian government officials and their friends according to the State Department's internal emails are funding and giving weapons to ISIS and Al-Qaeda.

How hilarious that Trump is now BRAGGING about a 110 BILLION dollar weapons deal with the Saudis as well. I wonder how many of those weapons will eventually end up in Islamic State hands.

 

[janklow]

LOL, so you don't want Assad removed from power now?? You getting second thoughts?

i don't know, i've said what i want in this thread repeatedly. why don't you try reading it for a change?

Another horrible post from you.

You said REPEATEDLY that you think Assad's govt is illegitimate and that you want him to go. Now that you find out that Assad is consolidating his rule, you're suddenly gonna act like him being safer in power doesn't disappoint you? LOL yeah okay. If you are not disappointed in Assad consolidating his grip on power, then just say so.

 

[kingblaze84]

Anyone here have family or friends in the Philippines? ISIS is said to have taken over a few towns there, not sure what the truth is because I'm seeing conflicting reports. Either way, militants who joined ISIS in 2014 or 2015 are said to have killed a lot of Filipino soldiers and cops these past few months, maybe hundreds. I haven't paid much attention to the situation in the Philippines but this is surprising to me.

 

[Swiffness!]

Terrible post from you. Anyway, I have already criticized Assad for being harsh numbskull, I just don't see how Assad's harshness even comes remotely close to the extreme horrors and chaos America has caused in the region.

because you INSIST on being willfully obtuse about Assad. case in point, in this sentence, you:

-describe Assad as "harsh"

-describe the US as causing "extreme horrors and chaos"

...which tells us that you don't think Assad assigning tens of thousands of Syrian citizens to torture and murder in regime facilities as "extreme horrors." which in turn tells us that you would rather rant about the US than spend one second of your life acknowledging the crimes of Assad. again, his crimes have literally been posted about AT LENGTH in this thread, only for you to pretend to be unaware of them. disgusting.

Multiple sources say the American invasion has led to at least a million plus civilian deaths in Iraq alone.

multiple sources detail Assad's crimes, yet you dispute them or claim to be unaware of them. yet you cite sources that want to hold the US accountable for deaths caused by others in the wake of their conflict while ignoring sources that talk about crimes committed DIRECTLY by Assad's regime.

But I have said several times that I would find it amusing if Assad gets taken down from power.

this is just another version of you being ride or die for Assad's innocence.

I would simply laugh at the massive chaos that would come as a result.

massive chaos that would occur in Syria as a DIRECT result of Assad's response to non-violent protests. but you won't acknowledge how much of a massive hypocrite you are when it comes to Assad, because that would require you to man up to a level you either cannot or will not do.

I already know Assad is harsh to his enemies

still doing this in 2017 lol

why can't you ever just admit "Assad is obviously preferable to ISIS running the show, but he's still a horrible monster in his own right too"

this is what Janklow is getting at

Is Assad evil? Yes. Better alternative than ISIS? Sadly, also yes. Boom. See? That wasn't hard.

But you can never do this and that's why I quit this thread like 10 years ago lol, you reflexively throw the cape on for Assad and immediately launch into BUTWHATABOUTIRAQ-

Nobody on the IC has supported the Iraq invasion since there was a G-Unit sub-forum in The Reason. You always turn it into this straw man argument like Janklow is some nigga that wanna gas the Palestinians and roll the tanks into Tehran....

You come off like a WW2 scholar that keeps weirdly trying to argue that Stalin didn't commit any war crimes and the only alternative was Hitler so therefore Stalin wasn't a bad guy, he was just a little "harsh" to all those Poles in Katyn Forest, LOOK HOW MANY PEOPLE HITLER KILLED AGAIN-

Always with this black and white binary thinking where two things cannot be true at the same time. Assad can't be both a cruel, genocidal monster that puts children in rape dungeons AND the only warlord that can stop jihadists from taking over. Its impossible. Can't be equally outraged by the Collateral Murder video and Hamza Ali Al-Khateeb's murder. No you have to CHOOSE SIDES. And since America's middle east policy is SO SHITTY, anybody that's not America is Not That Bad™ by default. America has the COPYRIGHT and EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS to war crimes in the Middle East. Its PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE for Assad to be a horrible war criminal because that would mean the U.S hasn't committed horrible war crimes itself. That's you. That's how you think. You're an anti-war activist caping every day in a dead forum for a war criminal because he (sorta) opposes other war criminals you don't like. Congrats.

If I felt like wasting my time going through this thread, I'm sure there's a bunch of articles you ignored about how Assad released jihadist soldiers from his prisons when the war began ahhhh fuck it

You haven't been paying attention to what I've been saying, I have ALREADY said Assad is not an angel, I know his regime has done some fucked up things. I have also made clear that his crimes still don't come close to America's war atrocities, so yeah, I don't criticize Assad as much as I do America's crimes.

America's foreign policy is without question making things much worse and you better believe America gets more blame worldwide for terrorist groups exploding in numbers compared to any blame Assad may deserve. If you want to bash Assad here, go right on ahead. I've spoken to MAAANNNYYY people on this subject, women and men, and I usually get the same response: America is much more responsible for this situation then Assad. But if you want to bash Assad, by all means, go right on ahead. Enlighten me.

America supporting Israel's apartheid is an EVIL action that GUARANTEES more recruitment for ISIS for many years to come. As bad as Assad is, at least he doesn't support Israeli apartheid. As long as America continues its policies of evil, I expect MORE groups who support ISIS to flourish.

 

[kingblaze84]

The situation in the Philippines is getting pretty crazy, ISIS claimed responsibility for what appears to be a big terror attack in a Filipino casino last night, at least 37 dead after a gunman described as a White guy shot at many gamblers and set fires all over the casino. This happened in Manilla, the Phillipines' capital.....Filipino authorities and Duerte are claiming publicly that it was just a "robber", but what kind of robber shoots at gamblers and casino employees all throughout a casino and sets explosions all over the place he wants to rob?

Anyway, Filipino soldiers are so desperate to get rid of the ISIS threat that they're using air strikes against them now, air strikes which also accidentally killed 11 Filipino soldiers yesterday. Amazing how Muslim jihadis are still flocking to ISIS and its banner, despite the fact that Mosul and Raqqa are going to be taken from Islamic State soon. There are also rumors ISIS is responsible for the massive Afghanistan bombing on Monday, in which 100 people were killed, over 461 wounded.

ISIS Claims Manila Casino Attack at Resorts World Complex

The Islamic State militant group (ISIS) has claimed responsibility for an attack on a casino in the Philippine capital Manila that killed at least 36 people on Friday, the group's Amaq news agency said, after officials said there was no evidence of militant involvement.

A gunman burst into the Resorts World Manila entertainment complex on Friday, firing shots, setting gaming tables alight and killing at least 36 people, all suffocating in thick smoke, in what officials have said was a botched robbery.

"Islamic State fighters carried out the Manila attack in the Philippines," the news agency said.
