US Airstrikes Caught On Tape; ISIS Retaliates By Capturing Hundreds Of Yazidi Women
As the following clip shows, the explosions from two F-18s dropping 500lb bombs were large and Iraq officials stated that 45 ISIS fighters were killed (and 60 injured). While The Islamic State's response was to demand blood for US intervention, it appears they went domestic first. As AP reports, Iraqi official says hundreds of Yazidi women taken captive by Islamic State militants.

And the retaliation was fast...
BREAKING: Iraqi official says hundreds of Yazidi women taken captive by Islamic State militants.
— The Associated Press (@AP) August 8, 2014
As AP reports,
The spokesman for Iraq's human rights ministry says hundreds of women from the Yazidi religious minority have been taken captive by militants from the Islamic State group.
Kamil Amin says the women are below the age of 35 and some are being held in schools in Iraq's second largest city, Mosul. He said the ministry learned of the captives from their families.
Tens of thousands of Yazidis fled when the Islamic State group earlier this month captured the northern Iraqi town of Sinjar, near the Syrian border. Amin's comments were the first Iraqi government confirmation that some women were being held by the group. The Yazidis practice an ancient religion that the Sunni Muslim radicals consider heretical.
Finally we thought it worth sharing the desperate spin that analysts are putting on this as a bearish signal for oil...
"In essence we find U.S. air strikes more bearish than bullish for oil as the act finally draws a line not to cross for IS and re-enforces both the stability in south Iraq and in Kurdistan," said Oliver Jakob, an analyst at Switzerland-based Petromatrix, in a note to traders.
Good luck with that.

"Targeted Strikes"
Those are the best kind
Those are very popular, as opposed to the bombs we drop and missiles we lauch that have no targets designated.
4 out of 5 marines admitted they prefer targeted strikes, saying it's the new Twitter, and compared it to designated privacy settings that target who can see their Abu Grahib selfies.
They only took hostages when they read the humanitarian MREs contained high-fructose corn syrup.
"We didn't establish a new snackbar caliphate to die from diabetus!" an anonymous insurget said.
Thanks for the laughs. Getting funny looks now
Only thing preventing this from happening here, is our second amendment and the Millions of armed Americans. Let the savages try it here. I dare them.
Go sick 'em, big boy!

Well... that escalated quickly.
So, what do you think the reaction will be to the Yazidi "Snuff Film 200" movie coming next week.
They are going to wreck those poor women.
I am so tired of the US being on the wrong side.
`let's follow the flow of refugees.... hmmm? the caucasian-knot syndrome unwinds and turns into a gordian kinda, kurdish (armenian) knot(2) paradox with an overarching 'Georgia-on-my-Side?' leaning and leeching into azerbaijan--`baku's port-o-call`... nesting quietly on the 'gas-rich-treasure-trove-bosom' of a certain, 'caspian sea', for a stealthy pipe`piper, blowing smoke...up his neighborhood's ass..., oops, there goes gravity, and down comes reality'?
It's really not the number of ISIS killed -- in fact, bombing also affects the ISIS fighters nearby -- when their entire body rumbles, and they get to go pick up chunks of their fellow fighters later on. This is a lot different than driving in the back of pick-up trucks and shooting your AK-47 into the air -- especially since you won't get to see the Iraqi army drop their weapons and run away -- nor do you get to rape and pillage the towns you conquer.
So then its back to Syria or they don't get paid.
They ran away from most of Syria due to the ass-kicking they were getting from the Syrian Arab Army.
Deep down, you're all looking forward to another pouty face from Michelle O holding up another hashtag card.
my thoughts exactly, maybe that red head Jen what the fuck in the state department can do the same and all will be well...
the isis head is a jew mossad operator

Classic example of an unarmed (dis-armed) populace.
Hey this would be a good time for a revolution. The NWO is fighting on the American front, the Russian front, the middle east front, the African front, the China South Sea front, the Financial front, and the Ebola front.
Calling all Generals that are plenty pissed. Now is your chance. With assets and wealth concentrated in such a few hands don't blow your opportunity.
We will come rejoicing bringing in the thieves.
Bringing in the thieves Bringing in the thieves. We will come rejoicing bringing in the thieves.
85 scumbuckets and a couple a queens. Should be no problem.
Why are we bombing ISIS all of a sudden now - the fuckery they were up to before wasn't bad enough? What changed? Are they threatening oil supply now?
Erbil houses the CIA station for the kurdish region. The humanitarian spin is just spin.
The Prez is really gonna need a vacation after this.
This shit is comin home by design.
"Funny" how Albert Pike predicted that WW3 would start in Mosul.
Seems like we're all being taken for suckers, and playing out THEIR diabolical pre-arranged script.
are we awake?
we're not sure..are we black?
yes we are...
well then we're awake, but we're very confused...
Really brave, macho mooslims-armed soldiers kidnaping women.
Carpet bomb their locations and get it over with.
"Capturing" yeah right.
Will they be listed on EBay or match.com?
But hey, your headline suggests they were captured after and in response to bombings. Do we know that, or only that the announcement came after the announcement of the bombings?
God speaks to these Holy Fighters through their erect penises.
Obviously!
Retaliates?! Who the fuck made you believe that it was "retaliation"? The crazies who hve lready slaughtered thousands of innocents have for a while deliberately been targeting the Yazidi. It is sickening when you for domestic political reasons so twist what is really going on.
I guess my first question is...wtf is a yazidi?
a very old religious sect from before the birth of christ. they aren't really muslim, they aren't Christians...more like mystics. Kind of like Amish in that they don't deal with technology.
ISIS is a Mossad agent. ISIS's leader Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi is a kike Mossad agent. His real name is Elliot Shimon.

If ISIL was a creation of whomever you Conspiracy theorists say, the fact is they have lost control of them.
