France destroy’s ISIL weapons storage facility in Raqqa

 

 

RAQQA: -- France has carried out airstrikes against an ISIL target in the Syrian city of Raqqa. According to the French Ministry of Defence, its fighter jets destroyed a heavy weapons storage and maintenance centre.

 

It follows a week of intense strikes by the French air force in what’s thought to be in preparation for ground assaults on the city.

 

Since the Paris attacks by Islamic State militants in November, President Francois Hollande has stepped up French aerial operations against the group.

Great. Where did they buy these weapons in the first place? Hunt down the arms dealers wherever they are in the world and kill them in their homes. Someone outside of Syria sold these weapons and brought them there. Some filthy business people need to die for these arms sales. Hunt them down like you would any terrorist. Hunt them down no matter if they live in a middle eastern nation, European nation, Russia, China or wherever. Kill them all dead. They fed this war and will do it again.

Before you jump into your conclusion, US also has a good part of their weaponry in ISIL's arsenal.... Should go back and read up on how US help created ISIL....etc.

 So the poster forgot to mention the U.S. His/her comments are still valid. Someone, somewhere are providing the armaments (apart from those captured by ISIL) - get rid of those people!

The main reason that ISIL have such a vast armoury of weapons and quantities of equipment, many of it Western, is in the main, not due to arms selling, although some of it will be.

 

Most of it came courtesy of the Iraqi Army, who ditched everything willy-nilly, in their desperate attempt to run away and save their own a@@es.

 

The mists of time dull the memories.

How many countries manufacture AK47's, seems to be everybody's weapon of choice, for small arms, I believe some of the RPG's may still be part of those US provide to Afghanistan to repel the Russians, they have been using them us against us ever since, unless than have run out !!

 

The whole World needs a no holds barred assault on any form of Islamic attempts to continue World domination.  Hey, wake up is has only been going on since 632 A.D. !!
