ISIL, ISIS, Daesh discussion thread.

The term has been used for a while now particularly by the US armed forces. Not particularly professional like 
Majority of Iraq and Syria? Not much for not very long.
Their strongholds of raqqah and mosul? Given their defences, I think they may be there a while.
Not raqqah and mosul, given their numbers and defenses there. They don't have to engage in a direct confrontation.
Of course he hasn't, it's the usual vitriol from the likes of RaohNS et al. What actually happened was he read something somewhere about how someone at some time celebrated the death of white people... Which of course is not unfathomable. I'm quite sure there were people who were celebrating these actions, I'm also dubious though that there were "scenes of celebration", as if to suggest there were crowds of them there darkies partying in the street like.
Out of interest, how many? Crowds? Hundreds/thousands? A few?
These accounts don't appease the rhetoric that RaohNS and Co like to peddle though. So you must be limp wristed lefty Liberal nonce.
Nato troops wouldn't quickly and systematically beat them. What will happen is yet another long and protracted urban guerrilla war where lots of people will die from heinous wounds from the likes of IED and ambush attacks.
They've been in raqqah and mosul for years now, they've developed a network of defenses and tunnels. It wouldn't be easy.

The video doesn't show the actual footage does it? Manbij has been a quick procession of regaining much of the city. Unfortunately it's very urbanised and still consists of many civilians. ISIL have dispersed amongst the civilians. Then on top of this the US seem to adhere to much looser rules when it comes to expectation of civilian casualty than the UK does.
Zero civilians should die, a large group of them though is totally unacceptable.
E: reading more into it, these claims were made by the Syrian Observatory and another monitoring group, the Local Co-ordination Committees (LCC). The coalition haven't commented yet, so it's still assumption with no real conclusion yet. Which means possibly anyone could have done this, including the Russians, the Syrians and the Turkish. I wonder what the "official" line will be from the US.......

They do for good old RaohNS. A username change to 'anecdote' would be fitting. I think it's sad that people grow up to hold such angry and biased views of the world though... Even more sad when it seems that these misconceptions are based on PLAYGROUND experiences!
You've formed your life view based on the actions of a minority of school children. You've carried that view with you into adult hood and you spout about it constantly in one form or another on forums on the internet.
Yeah, I was surprised they didn't do it with a little more conviction.... A la Lee Rigby.
"you, get in the car!"
"er, no"
"ok"... And drives off
Nope, just you.
You misunderstand me. A refusal to engage in discussion with someone who has deep routed bias and bigotry based on the actions of school children is not the same as having an inability to comprehend debate. You have left school now, haven't you?
Point taken and that is obvious, but again, we're basing our outlook on the actions of children here. People grow up and develop their own thoughts and beliefs. My parents and grandparents were terribly racist. I'm not.
Please, tell us more about the nasty boys in your class.
So out of all those people, mass celebrations, as you insinuate. That later in life produced 2 arrests for people handing out leaflets?
I've got no problem believing half of what you say. It's the grandiose, often conflated and often exaggerated guff that bothers me most. It's dangerous and it's dumb.

Let's recite and get a BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) eh....
You originally stated recollecting "scenes of celebration" - which, let's be honest, depicts crowds of people hollering and cheering in jubilation. You paint a picture of hundreds, nay thousands, of them Brown folk, partying in the street.
You was called out for BS.
You then went on to state how Asians at your school were guilty of doing the above.
The scenes of celebration has since whittled down to a gang of 15-20 boys (note:children). 3 or more went on to be naughty adults.
There is no arguing that you might have attended a particularly bad school and experienced an acute sample of estranged boys acting inappropriately. No one can deny that, it happens all over by all kinds of different people and culture. But then mob culture does that and regardless of who you are, if you're a lad in a gang of other bad lads and you're a particular POS then you're likely to go along with anything.
Neither of the last two paras are unfeasible or reason for me to scoff at what you say. However, the problem that is clear to see is you are making huge assumptions and you allow your world view on matters to be skewed by some rather minor events carried out by a small number of SCHOOL CHILDREN. You've allowed your bias to carry on into your adult life. You're harping on about living in a basement or some other guff, yet all I see from you is a bigoted, brain dead and out of date perspective that can only be held by someone who leads either a sheltered or plain ignorant life.
As for substance of posts, this is a childish throw away statement whereby you're trying to devalue what I post in front of others (point scoring). Given that your life outlook is based on a playground gang perception, it's understandable.
