NFT: VICE: Laughably inept ISIS combat footage

Greg from LI : 4/28/2016 1:27 pm
Some truly fearsome warriors there - I especially love their stop, drop, and roll technique for fire and maneuver.

I heard yesterday that ISIS recruitment is down to 200 a month  
Ben in Tampa : 4/28/2016 1:30 pm : link
versus 2000/month last year and the desertion rate is unsustainable.

the supply of idiots volunteering to be cannon fodder or human bombs

had to dry up eventually.

Yup!!!
That Abu Hajaar.

Not exactly a rocket scientist?
I was waiting

For the bomb they lit to Geoff as fast as JPP's went off, and blow themselves up! That would've been merciful! Talk about the Keystone Cops!!!
poor Abu Hajaar

He was trying his best, doggone it!
You're hitting us with the shell casings...

ISIS is not this bad this has to be a crew of new Soldiers on their first mission that barely know how to work their own equipment. And they quickly learned their lesson about organizing their combat loads and movement under fire.
I guess JV was wrong  
Moondawg : 4/28/2016 2:28 pm : link
should have been Frosh.
I obviously have no experience with this  
RB^2 : 4/28/2016 2:34 pm : link
but I'm assuming that fortified looking hill/mound position off in the distance is what they were after.

Maybe I'm totally wrong but it strikes me as a pretty bad idea to just roll up to it in two or three jihadmobiles and then STOP in the middle of a wide open field.
Is that the rocket

for people or vehicles?

I think the 200 number refers to foreign fighters. That may have something to do with the EU cracking down on travel to Turkey.

Are the numbers moving? Good, we're live.
These guys are boobs, but

Aren't there a lot of independent upstart groups that just join in their "cause"?

This may easily be to ISIS what some of those militia groups present in our country are to the USA. Like some of those groups that "patrol" our southern border.

This type of buffoonery  
BlackLight : 4/28/2016 2:47 pm : link
might be expected when a group like ISIS grows beyond a certain size. The quality of training is necessarily going to decline as the group gets larger.
Executing your own officers usually doesn't help

I was waiting for that as well. I wish that they had tried to light it up a few more times.

Shit, I think my local Boy Scout troop could take those guys out.

Yeah. I heard they tried to trade in front of us in 2009 to grab Clint Sintim.

It's after days like think that you wish you were chilling back at your hovel, munching and some dates and milk just before early evening beating of your pre-pubescent wife.

It's probably been months since he's had any quality goat tail.

Poor guy.
