Iraq's war against IS terrorism | Updates and Discussions

[Malik Alashter]

Has Iraqi army properly surrounded the city from all side ? If not ISIS can slip through Iraqi army offense easily, regroup, employ hit and run attacks, strategy of bleeding through thousand cuts.

This offensive should be taken as a small piece of puzzle. Securing border with Syria is the main thing I would consider choking ISIS in iraq.

Well I afraid of the army its been penetrated by terrorism supporters while the PMF is not.

The areas of operation are not besieged.


Recently a large convoy of 350+ IS members came from Hawija/Mosul to Tikrit.

The northern and southern fronts are not secured.

PMF advanced nearly 60KM and managed to secure the eastern front from Diyala up to the outskirts of Alem.

The northern front didn't begin operations until the last few hours. Southern front has most resistance, slow but steady advance.

The goal is to squeeze them into a small area and let all hell loose on them with artillery and mortar fire.

Advance in the northern front will seal the exit/ reinforcement route and push them down south.

Man you have no shame. You act like you're above all the religious extremism that's so rampant in the region, but in the end you're just another wahabi terrorist from Saudi. Everybody can see through your bull shit facade.

9/11 terrorists? All Saudis. Terrorist across the region? All Saudis. Most extremist nut jobs on defence.pk? All Saudis. Most number of suicide bombers in the region? All Saudis. All the other suicide bombers and terrorists also follow the Saudi school of thought.

Shia extremists are terrorists in anybody's book, but your savagery is on such a scale where any form of justification can be made to get rid of your filth. Crimes are overlooked, murders are overlooked, former enemies become allies etc... just so your filth can be pushed back. Why do you act like you're above all that? You're no different than any other Saudi here. The only difference between you and some bearded savage setting babies on fire in Iraq is your current location.

Yeah , Saudis everywhere it's fact and you must live with it ... see you wrote it 7 times ! you seems to be thinking of Saudis all time .

By the way,Saudis are not the responsible for your current economical issues ..it's your Mullah he can't stop funding shiite militias in the area he's funding them on your pockets and waste your money not Saudis...for that reason we're seeing these days many teachers protesting for poor salaries and low budget of the ministry of education.

Saudis are not the responsible for the international sanctions on Tehran it's your mistake , you're very ambitious looking for power and wants a nuclear bomb so carry the results without blaming on others .

Saudis didn't force your country to deal like a " super power country " and start interfering in Syria,Lebanon,Iraq and now in Yemen !

I always ask my self, you're Persians intruder to the Arabic community... so why you always stick your nose in Arabs' affairs ??
Or you're looking for a Persian empire and your country can't feed its people !!

Things will be okay for you just if your Mullah stop spreading Rafids terrorists in our region and intercept our interests.Otherwise, you know clearly where things could be ends to ..................


For those innocents , go and solve their problem and try to get a bit of respect then come to talk about your masters Saudis :

I won't generalize like what you did, but you're no more Rafidi Persian stigma on the world ! go hang yourself and do a favor for the world for single time

Do you actually think there's a point in attempting to reach the center of Tikrit without massive airpower ? They've planted IED's everywhere, there's no point in losing that many people to bombs to free it. This isn't any different than the war in Grozny 1999, Russians leveled it which is the only solution for IS strongholds where no one from inside the city will give a helping hand. Same for Fallujah. The US leveled it with artillery and airpower in the 2nd battle ( 2004 ).

It's pretty complicated. The battle of Tikrit is symbolic and will determine the outcome of all the other battles.

The plan is to corner IS fighters and rain hell on them, but it's a complicated battle and needs time. IS probably has at least 100 suicide bombers planned for Tikrit.

Read about the battle, Tikrit should be a similar operation, civillians left already.

Battle of Grozny (1999–2000) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Russian strategy in 1999 was to hold back tanks and armored personnel carriers and subject the entrenched Chechens to an intensive heavy artillery barrage and aerial bombardment before engaging them with relatively small groups of infantry, many with prior training in urban warfare. The Russian forces relied heavily on ballistic missiles (SCUD, OTR-21 Tochka) and fuel air explosives. (The TOS-1, a multiple rocket launcher with thermobaric weaponwarheads, played a particularly prominent role in the assault). These weapons wore down the Chechens, both physically and psychologically, and air strikes were also used to attack fighters hiding in basements; such attacks were designed for maximum psychological pressure.

here people are unable to understand difference between bombing cities and child murdering, so be prepared for "Iraqi Government is murdering innocent Sunni children in Tikrit" type cry

Islamic State torches oil field east of Tikrit

Baghdad: Islamic State militants have set fire to oil wells in the Ajil field east of the city of Tikrit to try to hinder aerial attacks aimed at driving them from the oilfield, a witness and military source said.

Black smoke could be seen rising from the oil field since Wednesday afternoon, said the witness, who accompanied Iraqi militia and soldiers as they advanced on Tikrit from the east.

Before the Islamic State took over the field in June it produced 25,000 barrels per day of crude that were shipped to the Kirkuk refinery, as well as 150 million cubic feet of gas per day piped to the government-controlled Kirkuk power station.

They are fighting against Daesh devil worshipers, no one else, so you should be okay with that.

The Iraqi forces will clean it within few more days.

U must be kidding. Assad is storming Jobar neighborhood for over 2 years. Shia army in Iraq is much less competent than Assads army. Unless they level the city competely they wont achieve much.

It's not a Shia army, thousands of locals from Tikrit are taking part in it, it's a war against IS not against Sunnis.

They should besiege and push them in a small area, than request coalition airpower and level it together with artillery. There's no other option as they have too many suicide bombers waiting inside the city.

He has such a deep hatred against Shias, you could even smell it from hundreds miles away. That's why I say terrorist groups like Nusra and ISIS have the same interests as Israel and their online Hasbara propagandists.

Nonsense. I want Shia's to be free from brutal ayatula dictatorship.

 

[1000]

Army works together with PMF and Shia groups such as Kataib Hezbollah in the pics above. Both army and the PMF have thousands of Sunnis and Christians in their ranks.

I know he has problems with Hezbollah-Syria-Iran therefor supports the opposition in Syria. Anyway i'm just saying, it's mainly Sunnis that are joining against IS lately whenever they get the chance of doing so without being beheaded, but we are all Safavids in the end, for now that image remains.
