AL-QAIDA BREAKAWAY PURSUING AN ISLAMIC STATE [Excerpts] 

An al-Qaida splinter group that has seized a huge chunk of northern Iraq commands as many as 10,000 fighters and has steadily been consolidating its hold on much of northeastern Syria across the border. 

Its pursuit of an Islamic state that would straddle the two countries has thrown it into bloody conflict with both governments, Kurdish militias and Syrian rebels of all stripes. 

The group, known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, has employed *a calculated strategy* to achieve its aims, using everything from beheadings to terrify opponents to ice cream socials for children to curry favor with local populations under its control. 

Initially, more moderate Syrian rebels welcomed the group's experienced fighters.  But the Islamic State alienated many rebels and Syrian civilians alike with its brutality and attempts to impose its strict interpretation of Islam. 

It also drew the ire of many opposition fighters by focusing not on the fight against Assad, but rather on restoring a medieval Islamic state, or caliphate, in Iraq and Greater Syria, also known as the Levant —-traditional names that refer to a region stretching from southern Turkey to Egypt on the eastern Mediterranean. 

. . .[Abu Bakr] al-Baghdadi's refusal to bow won him the loyalty of many of the most hard-line fighters in Syria, *particularly foreigners*, and his group has proven resilient.  It now controls much of northern and eastern Syria from its stronghold of Raqqa, and has routed the Iraqi security forces across the border as well. 

*The Islamic State has crafted its tactics and message to best meet local considerations.* 

"In Iraq, they portray themselves as the protectors of the Sunni community," al-Tamimi said. "In Syria, they are much more open about their ideology and project." 

In the Syrian city of Raqqa, their strict brand of Islamic law holds sway. Activists and residents say music has been banned, Christians have to pay an Islamic tax for protection and people are executed in the main square. 

In the Iraqi city of Fallujah, however, residents say the group has so far taken a more moderate approach, choosing to overlook some practices it considers forbidden. 

[ Do you see a group aiming at a medieval Islamic state in the whole Levant, also crafting its tactics to best meet local considerations ? 

Or do you perceive the hand and money of The World Tyrant aiming to grab West Asia wholesale after having failed in its retail efforts ? ]

A LOOK AT THE US [WORLD TYRANT] PRESENCE IN IRAQ [Excerpts] 

The U.S. [World Tyrant] Embassy in Baghdad is the largest in the world, but America's [The World Tyrant’s] presence in Iraq has been shrinking. 

There are a little over 100 U.S. [World Tyrant] military personnel in a section of the U.S. [World Tyrant] Embassy that coordinates U.S. [World Tyrant] foreign *military sales* to Iraq. 

It is called the Office of Security Cooperation-Iraq and is headed by [World Tyrant] Army Lt. Gen. John M. Bednarek. 

More than 100 U.S. [World Tyrant] Marines provide security at the embassy.

[ Also: ] 

. . .what remained after 2011 was the small group that is coordinating *security assistance*. 

One of the largest training missions was based at the air base in the city of Balad, about an hour northwest of Baghdad, where *three* planeloads of Americans [Word Tyrant ubermenschen] were evacuated this week as insurgents worked their way toward Baghdad. 

[ Also: ] 

. . .the [World Tyrant] State Department has consulates in three cities: Basra in the. . . south; Irbil in. . .northeastern Iraq; and Kirkuk [in the north]. . . . 

[ Also: ] 

As of Dec. 15, 2013, all American [World Tyrant] contractors helping familiarize and train Iraqis with weapons and other military equipment purchased from the U.S. [The World Tyrant] are working under Iraqi government contract. 

Previously they had been Pentagon contractors. . . . 

[ An *un*occupied *occupied* country.  Can you think of an example ? ] 

[ By the way, now you understand why the Islamic Emitate of Afghanistan will not tolerate even a single World Tyrant / NATO soldier on the soil of their country ! ]

CHP Deputy Parliamentary Group Head Muharrem Ince has asked for explanations of a photograph showing ISIL commander Abu Muhammad allegedly receiving free treatment in Hatay State Hospital on April 16, 2014, after being injured during fighting in Idlib, Syria. 

The photograph circulated widely on the Internet following ISIL’s assault on Mosul June 9. 

The debate was sparked after the ISIL militants took 49 workers of Turkey’s Mosul Consulate and 31 Turkish truck drivers hostages after seizing Iraq’s second biggest city, Mosul.
