Presenting ISIS-Beating "Mad Max" Battle Tanks And Buses

Tyler Durden's picture




 

When it comes to fighting the barbaric beheaders formerly known as ISIS, Kurdish fighters appear to have gone to the 1979 movie "Mad Max" for inspiration. As The Daily Mail notes, while significantly outgunned by Islamic State, the Kurds have created a fleet of well-armored, elaborately-designed, ominous-looking battle-buses by converting tractors and trucks into tanks...

 

Spot The Difference...

1979 Movie Mad Max...

 

And 2014 Kurdish Fighters...

 

Source: The Daily Mail

*  *  *

So to sum up - ISIS (the enemy) is using the latest and greatest US military equipment that it either stole from (or was given) Iraqi military and the Kurdish Peshmurga (our allies) are using tractors and trucks cobbled together with steel plates, duct tape, and surreal images.

Ok...

OK, all that stuff is cooler than the Mad Max-style car I finished building a few months ago for myself.

But... do they have a blower on the engine like me and Max have?  I think not.

I'm telling you, this car WILL come in handy someday.

In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

Plus one but there is nothing "Christian" about Black Liberation Theology.

Jesus paid no attention to a persons skin color, he recognized a persons soul and the good and evil existing in the world that influence people. James Cone and Rev.Wright and Obama etal should be cognizant of the fact that more than enough Christians of all colors (and atheists for that matter) know what they promote is ultimately racist & evil.

Any army that Amerika's military is supposedly helping and training is always sabotaged.  The USSA does not want a strong and effect Iraqi or Afghani Army because they would throw Amerika out.

As far as these Kurds or other welding metal on to tanks bulldozers.

I followed a lot of the Ukraine battles.  Novorussia was using Grad MLRS which uses this diabolical sort of smart cluster muitions.   Any tanks, BMP, APCs that the Ukrainians had were easily destroyed.

Note to any Amerikan with a kid - keep em put of the military because of these types of weapons, gangs in the USSA military, illegals and criminals they now recruit.

I watched Road Warrior daily during the week in a theater downtown Chicago, $1 matinee. Bought beer a the corner Walgreen's to smuggle in for refreshments. Same audience every day. Everybody shouted out the key phrases like "the ayatollah of rock n rolla" etc.

 

We all thought it was a training film for the end of the world, coming in 1980. Turns out we were 35 years early.

 

 

BTW, those things look like serious RGP bait. How could you miss?

It was 1979 when the original movie (The Road Warrior) came out.  Nobody who was alive in 1979 remembers anything about 1979.  Aside from Jimmy Carter.  

What was the other famous warrior movie from that era?  Hint:  Baseball Furies.

 

CAN YOU DIG ITtttttt  ???? !!!!!

Who runs Syria-Town?  Master Blaster lolololololololololololl.  I wonder if they are going to use any of that oil money from the north to buy their forces better tanks.  Oh I forgot, the elite of the kurds is taking that money and putting it in accounts overseas for hookers and gambling.

All during the Iraq war I wondered....why are we not arming the Kurds?  

 

They are the only ones worth a damn.  From my experience talking with immigrant kurds they are quite nice people.

Because Turkey is a NATO country; I know, I know, it's hard to believe, but it is; and they have a problem with the Kurds; and turkey is very important to our current lying and murdering campaign in Syria; so the Kurds don't get any help. Sucks to be honest in Obama's World.

Instead of reinforced combat vehicles these look like decoys - cars and tractors being decorated as targets... except for that shielded APC. It's probably a combination of both.

"So to sum up - ISIS (the enemy) is using the latest and greatest US military equipment that it either stole from (or was given) Iraqi military and the Kurdish Peshmurga (our allies) are using tractors and trucks cobbled together with steel plates, duct tape, and surreal images."

I'm sure someone will be happy to put them into some new, top-of-the-line equipment, at very low rates, secured with a reasonable collateral stream.

problem is, do they have the discipline to do the PMs (not those, the others) to keep the shit running?  Only the very best have that discipline, but we won't find out for a while.

And yet, ironically and treasonously enough, the Brass at the DOD is happy to click their heels and straight-arm salute the Obozo-in-Chief, and carry out any and all orders... no matter how insane or treasonous.

Some "Patriots", some "Oath Keepers". They remind one more of Pirates or Pimps than Patton-like Generals. Traitors!
