The US military is ramping up operations against ISIS in Iraq and Syria
ISIS may be down, but it's far from out.

BY JARED KELLER | PUBLISHED FEB 2, 2023 10:44 AM
 
The Islamic State group may have been territorially ‘defeated’ in Iraq and Syria years ago, but U.S. forces continue to mop up the last vestiges of the terror network there.

U.S. Central Command announced on Thursday that the U.S.-led coalition and partner forces had conducted 43 missions against ISIS in January under Operation Inherent Resolve in Iraq and Syria.


January’s operations resulted in 11 ISIS operatives killed and another 227 detained, CENTCOM said.

For comparison, CENTCOM previously announced in December that it conducted 313 missions against ISIS in 2022, with an average of 26 operations every month, suggesting the U.S. may be on pace to surpass last year’s totals in 2023.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

What an advantage!  The US will probably be facing a group whose weapons were supplied by the US. :whistle:

Who is funding the formerly nomadic goat herders of ISIS?  72 virgins don't come cheap.

Operational structures are usually organized around finances - income and disbursement.

That rapid thumping sound you here is that dog being wagged to the wall by it's tail.  Pedo Joe has the distraction machine spinning out of control.
