ISIS Holds Parade With Captured US Military Vehicles

Tyler Durden's picture




 

As ISIS marches south over Iraq, produces movies, creates annual reports, and attacks dams; The Long War Journal reports The Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham's Ninewa Division continues to crank out images of its conquest of Mosul and the surrounding province. Earlier today, the Ninewa Division released photographs of its forces seizing control of several bases, displaying captured military hardware, and executing Iraqi soldiers. Then, the Ninewa Division published a set of photographs of a military parade in the city of Mosul. The photographs provide a glimpse of the ISIS' military strength in Mosul.

 

Via The Long War Journal, 

Scores of ISIS technicals, as well as several captured US-supplied Humvees, armored cars, and even artillery pieces are shown. Hundreds of ISIS fighters are involved in the parade, which begins during the day and goes on through the night.

A subset of the photographs is published below.

Scores of ISIS vehicles and hundreds of fighters line up for the parade:

Ok let me get this straight, you got a column of vehicles several miles long full of easy targets.  We managed to wipe out that Iraqi Revolutionary Guard Column way back in the last Iraq war but we let these guys drive/cruise  around like its Friday night on Main St back in the 50s and Chubby Checker is playing on the radio.  What the heck.  We might as well do an air drop of fuzzy dice for the mofos, heck we equipped them anyways with all their weapons, paid for by us and the Saudicks.

In the link above apparently the Sunni ISIS are killing other Sunnis like the Turkmen of Northern Iraq, this is not just about sunni vs shiite its also ethnic.  Arabs against Persians, Kurds, and Turkmen.  By the way interesting fact, the Kurds are Indo European people with a language in same category as Persian.

Not one ZH reader can spot the bullshit. 

Captured "US" military equipment?  No, it's captured IRAQI ARMY equipment.  See how it's right next to the iraqi solders being executed?  They tried to run like cowards or change sides like traitors, and either abandoned their equipment or handed it to the other side.  Shooting them is just what the court martial would order anyway.

Saladin would weep at the sight of Iraq's land-grabbing, ethnic cleansing, oil-stealing KDP sell-outs calling themselves Kurds if he was alive today. The KRG leaders look like Kurds, but someone has removed their souls.

A few months ago, Iraqi Kurd's KDP was accusing the Syrian Kurds PYD of siding with Assad. Mostly because the Syrain PYD was fighting against ISIL and al Nusra (and by proxy, the FSA). All this while the KDP was buddying-up with their new BFFs, Nettanyahu and Erdogan.

Never forget that all these ISIS fighters were paid, trained, and supplied by the USA.

 

The goal of Obama handlers is to divide Iraq into friendly to US small states and to deprive Iran from any potential allies in the region.

 
As for Iraqi army, it is just a repeat of the last US invasion into Iraq when all Saddam Hussein generals were paid off by CIA to do nothing against US invaders.

All secret societies need a scapegoat to blame when they execute plans so they are hidden and the populace is confused,

 

"The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the "agentur" of the "Illuminati" between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time."

A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties(February1982)

"Iraq, rich in oil on the one hand and internally torn on the other, is guaranteed as a candidate for Israel's targets. Its dissolution is even more important for us than that of Syria. Iraq is stronger than Syria. In the short run it is Iraqi power which constitutes the greatest threat to Israel. An Iraqi-Iranian war will tear Iraq apart and cause its downfall at home even before it is able to organize a struggle on a wide front against us. Every kind of inter-Arab confrontation will assist us in the short run and will shorten the way to the more important aim of breaking up Iraq into denominations as in Syria and in Lebanon. In Iraq, a division into provinces along ethnic/religious lines as in Syria during Ottoman times is possible. So, three (or more) states will exist around the three major cities: Basra, Baghdad and Mosul, and Shi'ite areas in the south will separate from the Sunni and Kurdish north. It is possible that the present Iranian-Iraqi confrontation will deepen this polarization."

jeff montanye's picture

and you should know about fishy smells of all sorts, s.v.

as counterpunch notes (from the link above) regarding obama's willingness to bomb u.s. citizens in yemen (and their children and their children's friends) while not touching a day and night-long parade of conquered u.s. heavy weapons featuring executions of iraqi soldiers because of some supposed need for maliki to be more "inclusive" of sunnis:

the sectarian war the US initiated and promoted with its blistering counterinsurgency strategy–which involved massive ethnic cleansing of Sunnis in Baghdad behind the phony “surge” BS– changed the complexion of the country for good. There’s no going back. What’s done is done. Baghdad is Shia and will remain Shia. And that means there’s going to be some connection with Tehran. So, if the Obama people intend to roll back Iran’s influence, then they probably have something else in mind. And they DO have something else in mind. They want to partition the country consistent with an Israeli plan that was concocted more than three decades ago. The plan was the brainstorm of Oded Yinon who saw Iraq as a serious threat to Israel’s hegemonic aspirations, so he cooked up a plan to remedy the problem. Here’s a blurb from Yinon’s primary work titled, “A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties”, which is the roadmap that will be used to divide Iraq:

 

“Iraq, rich in oil on the one hand and internally torn on the other, is guaranteed as a candidate for Israel’s targets. Its dissolution is even more important for us than that of Syria. Iraq is stronger than Syria. In the short run it is Iraqi power which constitutes the greatest threat to Israel. An Iraqi-Iranian war will tear Iraq apart and cause its downfall at home even before it is able to organize a struggle on a wide front against us. Every kind of inter-Arab confrontation will assist us in the short run and will shorten the way to the more important aim of breaking up Iraq into denominations as in Syria and in Lebanon. In Iraq, a division into provinces along ethnic/religious lines as in Syria during Ottoman times is possible. So, three (or more) states will exist around the three major cities: Basra, Baghdad and Mosul, and Shi’ite areas in the south will separate from the Sunni and Kurdish north. It is possible that the present Iranian-Iraqi confrontation will deepen this polarization.” (A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties, Oded Yinon, monabaker.com)

 

Repeat: “Every kind of inter-Arab confrontation will assist us in the short run and will shorten the way to the more important aim of breaking up Iraq into denominations as in Syria and in Lebanon.”

 

This is the plan. The United States does not benefit from this plan. The United States does not benefit from a fragmented, Balkanized, broken Iraq. The oil giants are already extracting as much oil as they want. Iraqi oil is, once again, denominated in dollars not euros. Iraq poses no national security threat to the US. US war planners already got what they want. There’s no reason to go back and cause more trouble, to restart the war, to tear the country apart, and to split it into pieces. The only reason to dissolve Iraq, is Israel. Israel does not want a unified Iraq. Israel does not want an Iraq that can stand on its own two feet. Israel wants to make sure that Iraq never remerges as a regional power. And there’s only one way to achieve that goal, that is, to follow Yinon’s prescription of “breaking up Iraq …along ethnic/religious lines …so, three (or more) states will exist around the three major cities: Basra, Baghdad and Mosul.”

 

This is the blueprint the Obama administration is following. The US gains nothing from this plan. It’s all for Israel.

No it wasn't an accident.  Just Obama's way of getting the military gear into the hands of his buddies per his Saudi master's wishes.  Everyone had such a problem with arming al Qeada directly, so he went with the 'look what those pesky Iraq's went and did approach'.  Probably asked the Iraqi PM to do this a month or two ago and he balked, which is why Obama sent the Horse over to claim yet another government must be replaced for the good of us all.

You can only bomb sovereign nations without their permission while you're able to bomb sovereign nations without their permission. Syria put an end to Amerika's ability to do that. 

This is not planned guys. You need to wake up a realise that Amerika has lost control.

The fact that the US was flying drones over Iraq weeks before this offensive started, ostensibly to keep an eye on these guys, and nobody saw the attack coming...

The fact they already had US arms and likely training before capturing Mosul...

The fact that we are flying F-18s over there to warn ISIS withscary loud airplanes instead of bombing the hell out of 'the guys who are so bad that even Al-CIA-Da doesn't want anything to do with them'....

The fact the Shia clerics threatened to kill any Americans sent to help... the Shia government...

The fact that it appears that the Iraqi military conveniently doesn't have much gear left after losing Mosul...

Just imagine the logistics involved for ISIS.  They are fighting on at least three fronts:  Against Assad in Syria, Against the FSA in Syria, against Maliki in Iraq, and they have to keep an eye on the Kurds as well.  Didn't it just happen today that John McCain's Al Nusra bowed down and swore allegiance to ISIS?

No shit, right?  I mean WTF is the point of our uber spy wogs if they can't see a goddamned invasion coming of a country we dropped a trillion dollars on first blowing up then trying to prop up?  Jesus, it's enough to make one drink (even more).

Now instead of a bunch of shit-eating primates clad in black running around with swords and AKs we have shit-eating primates clad in black running around in APCs with artillery.  

And yeah, a couple of cobras could have made a few nice passes when these clows from the dark ages were all convoyed up in their 4runners.

Time to split Iraq up and call it quits.  Sunnis on one side, Shia on another, and let the kurds have their well-deserved kingdom.

That's true.  Any mention of Israel in a negative light proves that person to be an evil, Jew hating Nazi, that probably just has separation anxiety from having his foreskin harvested without his consent.

I will draft my apology letter for the ADL, and travel to Israel so I can cheer on the IDF while I watch them drop white phosphorous on schools in Gaza.

You have to be very careful with this sentiment. "These are projections"...images made to create an emotional response...ones the Iraqis have all too quickly fallen into and one the Hebrew Hedge is willing to fly in their Hitler loving genocidal rage.

These "ISIS" people have no friends. PERIOD. They are extolling an ideology not even anyone in the Middle East believes in...although certainly many at the "Fantasy Factory" would like to have everyone believe.

Hard to tell what is going on from this far away...but the folks on both sides of this sure look expendable.

Again...I think the President is doing this just right. "Gather information, counsel patience"...especially after our dramatic foray into Ukraine.

"The only purpose to immediately start calling for the top guys resignation is to cover up for knowledge of who the criminals really are."

I don't give Al Maliki much longer...but if he's a goner the that was inevitable anyways. Calling for his resignation...as with General Shinsecki's...not only solves nothing but in fact makes matters worse.

In others "you need to put on your detective hat here."

Not to worry. The Xi contractors are already there showing them how to run and fix the hardware before the big push into Syria., if everything goes to plan.

If US.gov were really against ISIS, this parade would certainly have been a "highway of death" moment. No excuse this time for the NSA/CIA not be looking at what ISIS is doing.

The fact that there were no airstrikes is absolute proof who is behind ISIS. The John Kohn bit in Baghdad, along with the US "boots on the ground" are just there to make sure that Maliki and/or the Iraqi Army fold as it says in the script.

I just hope Maliki is smart enough to realize that he has to hold on like grim death without caving to the Deep States' game plan.

This doesn't make me feel very proud. The catalyst for war has not been diminished as many people have hoped it would once the world matured. National pride, political agendas, religious and ethnic hatreds are some of the biggest roadblocks to world peace.

Often we seem to forget as we look back to World War II and past a dozen "lesser Conflicts" peace has been the exception rather then the rule for hundreds and thousands of years. The true reality is that across the world few mothers want to see their children killed and most farmers want to be left along to raise their crops and earn a living. More on the subject of war as a solution to conflict in the article below.

It isn't that hard to believe that out of thousands of jihad jackoffs there are hundreds who have done time driving tanks or other military equipment (as conscripts, which is oblicatory in most countries of that region).

They can shoot pedestrians with an Ak-47, fly US military choppers, dig ditches with a US made howitzer and shut down major utilities and energy infrastructure. Damn, they're getting shit done left and right. It's almost like they had training and support to figure how to do all of this in a couple of weeks.
