Default The dirty deal of Raqqa

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/...s_dirty_secret

I'm speechless. If you shy away from letting your beast go for all blood there is, then do not start war in the first.

The IS terrorists will feel confident over this deal. They now spread over Syria asnd Turkey. And they will not become desert farmers over night, that much is certain.

The politicians arranging this deal instead of dropping a gas cloud or fire carpet or neutron bomb on the city, should be lined up against a wall and shot.

The price for this folly will be paid in blood in the future, absolutely no doubt.

Reminds of the folly Bush senior committed in 1991 when stopping the offensive against Saddam after four days instead of kicking it over the cliff - and even allowiung Saddam an air force to mow down the Shia the CIA had encouraged to revolt.

If your heart is too kind and your soul is to sensible to wipe out the enemy - then do not go to war in the first.

IS is lucky that I have no say in the planning of the war aagi8nmst it. If my advisers woudl ahve said the house combat in Racca would be too costly to own troops, I would have called in the bigger guns - and wiped out the city from 20 km away, house by house.

That is not what means to be kind and sensible. Its what it means to win a war and to deny the enemy the chance to stab you from behind next night.

DAMN IDIOTS. DAMN CYNICAL TREACHEROUS IDIOTS. These are some of the most battle-hardened veterans of IS, and the let them intentionally escape - in scores and scores. I still am shocked.

This is the current major news story on some news channels in the UK so I'm waiting on some serious investigation regarding the matter before reaching my personal opinion/conclusion.

It is not only that, while i basically like kurdish fighters and how they fight Daesh, they have been promised a good part of the IS-territory for their own future; so a lot of Raqqa's inhabitants are reluctant to go back to their town in fear of the new kurdish masters.
Dirty deals, lots of them.
