63 year old warrior Abu Tahseen speaks matter of factly of being a veteran of five conflicts, the last being that of fighting ISIS in his native Iraq. His conflicts include the Yom Kipper war, the Iran-Iraq War, Saudi invasion of Iraq, the U.S. led Gulf war and now the fight against the brutal enemy of Iraq, ISIS.

He joined a volunteer group called the Popular Mobilization Unit. Fighting is what he knows. Here in this video he is seen talking to his spotter and taking aim at a target in his designated spot on top of a hill that he guards with his sharp eye and accurate sniper rifle. He takes pride in being Sniper King of the Mountain where the enemy hardly dares to tread and if one does, he neutralizes him.

Two days ago (14th April) was 27th anniversary of Anfal Genocide, when Iraqi Baath destroyed nearly 5000 Kurdish villages + dozens Assyrian. Over hundred thousand people were massacred, millions expelled.

This crime is tenfolds bigger than all crimes committed by ISIS combined (todays Iraqi Baath).

Yet during the Anfal massacre Iraqi Baath was a legitimate government, friend of both US and USSR.

Today history is repeated with Syrian Baath (aka Assad).

RAMADI, Iraq, April 17 (Xinhua) -- A total of 16 Islamic State (IS) militants were killed on Sunday in clashes and air strikes in Iraq's largest province of Anbar, a provincial security source said.

The security forces and allied Sunni paramilitary tribal units clashed with IS militants who tried to attack a military base at Jeraishi area in north of the provincial capital city of Ramadi, some 110 km west of Baghdad, leaving six IS militants killed, including two suicide bombers, the source told Xinhua on condition of anonymity.

Separately, the army artillery shelled IS positions in Jubba area near the town of al-Baghdadi, some 190 km northwest of the Iraqi capital of Baghdad, killing four IS operatives, the source said.

Meanwhile, a suicide car bomber tried to strike a position of the security forces in Khasfa area near the town of Haditha, some 200 km northwest of Baghdad, but a U.S.-led coalition warplane destroyed the car bomb and killed the suicide bomber before reaching the troops' defensive line, the source added.

Also in the province, an Iraqi aircraft bombarded a house said to be used by IS militants in Zuwiya area near the IS-held city of Fallujah, some 50 km west of Baghdad, killing five militants and wounding 12 others, the source said citing intelligence report.

Three days ago, the troops raised the Iraqi flag in the town of Heet, some 160 km west of Baghdad, after 14 days of fierce clashes with the extremist militants.

1 Abrams tank being the only MBT used in the Hit operation, its crew gained a good reputation.

Meet ‘The Beast’: An Iraqi Army M-1 Abrams tank that is tearing apart ISIL in the city of Hit

nicknamed “The Beast.”

The tank has earned its nickname on social media and from U.S and coalition military advisers for the devastation it has caused to Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL)–held positions within the city of Hit, 172 kilometres northwest of Baghdad, United Press International reported.

“This M1 tank has been driving all around Hit … blasting (improvised explosive devices), punching holes in enemy defences, and manoeuvring between multiple engagements and allowing … Iraqi army ground forces, you know, to clear and help evacuate civilians,” Colonel Steve Warren, spokesman for Operation Inherent Resolve, the U.S.-led mission to drive ISIL out of Iraq and Syria, told UPI.

According to Warren, the tank had engaged ISIL positions so well that U.S. military advisers had assumed multiple Iraqi tanks were operating within the city.

As a result of it’s success on the battlefield the tank earned the moniker “The Beast.”

“So this tank has been so successful, this one tank crew, that the American advisers who actually watch this tank in action have — have given it the hero-of-the-day award for, like, several days running,” Warren said.
