The least they can do is hire someone who knows the basics of propaganda, there are plenty of them around.

Don't insult me. I have trained professionals to do that.

Well if we need to find people to fight... There's a thread that had some people that would probably be good at it, many of whom were attacked for their opinion about war. (hint hint)

 

I wonder why people complain about not getting enough people to fight the bad guys after attacking people for not being pacifists.[/sarcasm]

Yeah yeah yeah, keep attacking anti war movements. It's so mature. :roll:

 

Don't bother responding to that, because I won't acknowledge you.

Jordan's stepping things up, and so's Iraq.

I'm not attacking an anti-war movement, I'm defending people being attacked by people who are 'anti-war'.

Big News!

 

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/isis-replace-injured-leader-baghdadi-with-former-physics-teacher/ar-AAbvfRY?ocid=U305DHP

 

ISIS leader al-Baghdadi has been critically injured and has been replaced. Looks like we're going to get acquainted with the new guy...

 

EDIT: Story is apparently full of shit.

 

EDIT 2: Apparently it really is genuine.

Situation in Ramadi is almost completely fucked.

EDIT:http://www.newsobserver.com/news/article21177543.html

 

Now it is completely fucked; looks like ISIS have taken over the entire city or near enough of it.

 

Now sectarian warfare will start on a much worse level then previously seen.

It's been a while since the Fall of Ramadi, but so far not much has changed. Iraq is preparing for a counter-offensive, but it's still a few weeks away at the earliest.

 

In the meantime, some of the more militant Shia groups have clashed with Iraqi security forces.

EDIT: By the way, Baiji got recaptured by ISIS again. That was a month or two ago.

So an Iraqi militia just bombed an Iranian exile camp:

In unconfirmed reports, Iraq has been making progress in retaking the city of Ramadi (the extent of their success so far isn't known, but they're doing something), and in less uplifting news ISIS is outside of Samarra and a Shiite militia (allegedly) blew up the largest Sunni mosque in Baiji.

 

EDIT: http://en.alalam.ir/news/1755261

 

The Iraqis have a presence in the center of Ramadi. It's about damn time some good news came out of the region.
